    Re: [serious]memory wanted

    i heard something about XP only being able to utilize 512M anyways. Anybody know what i am talking about? I have 512M in my laptop, and it works fine.

    I have no idea what you are talking about, because i just stuck a stick of 512DDR266 SO-DIMM 200pin in my laptop, it is like 200% faster at starting up and i can run more than one application at a time. So those people must have just been drunk

    so you have a gig now? i'm sure that it can use it instead of swapping, but the os can't use more than 512M for an app, the way I think i understand it. you may not have to swap anything out while starting up, but do you think any one program is using more than 512?

    actually i have 640mbs in my computer, it came with 128(those basterds at ECS )

    the thing that i was having trubble keeping up with was, running photoshop 7, imageready 7, Trillian, Firefox, Internet Explorer, SmartFTP, and either .NET 2003 pro and/or FrontPage 2000.

    i am often working on modding YaBB(which is a bulliten board for my site) and helping people that need help with like vb6 on yahoo, along with me chatting. and the sad part is that i hate multi-tasking and i do it all the time

    Re: [serious]memory wanted

    I asked someelse today that has the same thing. See if you can boot on the onboard 128M. I think that memory is only for the hardware devices that are onboard, and not used by Windows. Take out the sticks, and see if you can boot to a floppy, or anything for that matter.

    So, you are only using 512M. Try it with 1G to see if there is any difference.
    I doubt it

    i was stuck with the 128mbs for quite a while. i could boot into windows, run all my programs, but it was verry slow, and laggy. for me to start Visual Studios it would take like 2-3mins. that is because the page file was huge. now with the ram it is much better

    and my laptop cannot support 1gig of ram. 512 stick is all it supports, ya it sucks

    Who here uses simple apps? Only *non-coders* (spit) use simple apps. Us programmers normally cane our machines with VS.Net and MSDN and FF and MSN and Gamespace and Thunderbird and Access and Excel and Word and the DX9 documentation ALL AT ONCE!!!!

    I did that yesterday to test out my new 640megs of ram!! No paging at all, even after an hour of coding and browsing. Wicked.

    Re: [serious]memory wanted

    I had 512MB of DDR2 and upgraded a while ago to 1GB of DDR2. The machine is definitely running faster. I'd normally have running:

    Microsoft Outlook, Internet Explorer, FireFox, Winamp, Visual Studio .NET 2003 or 2005, SQL Server, SQL Server Enterprise Manager, SQL Server Query Analyzer, Macromedia Dreamweaver, all at a resolution of 1280*1024*32.
