How to upgrade your PC’s RAM

MSN has a link on how to upgrade your PC’s RAM. No idea what im talking about? here’s something to start you on the path of hardware enlightenment =). This is the easiest, quickest and cheapest way to get a boost out of that rig that still has 256mb or 128mb (or even 512mb!) of system RAM installed.

Adding RAM is often the most cost-effective upgrade you can make to speed up a sluggish computer. PCs that had more than enough RAM when they were new often have trouble keeping up with the demands of the latest programs after a few years. New operating systems almost always call for more memory, too. When a computer runs short of RAM, it’s forced to swap the overflow data on and off of the hard drive, which can significantly slow performance.
