Windows XP RAM requirements....

Recommended Posts

My friend has a PC, and man it is in DIRE need of RAM upgrades. He has rampant spyware and viruses that have not even let him log on to the PC, and to make matters worse, he has ONLY 112MB of RAM!

 

I do know before I do anything to that PC, he will need a RAM upgrade. How much RAM in total would be sufficient for him? I was thinking along the lines of 256-300MB for the stuff he would wanna run.

He has 128MB of RAM with 16MB being used by the intergrated video card.

 

Just buy a 256MB stick and pop it in.

Sounds good to me. Hopefully, that will be enough.

Get a real video card too, that will help some.

 

I've got a new computer with a 64mb integrated video card and it sucks ass, it wont play anything AND it takes 64 mbs up, so instead of having 512 mbs available, its only using 448.
