Upgrading the RAM in Dell Dimension 9150 Desktop

brophs

Hi,

I was just having a look at my folks' desktop and it seems to be quote sluggish and slow to start. I've disabled a lot of the startup items but not much difference. Having checked the RAM it says it has 2GB, whereas the maximum is 4GB. Can someone with a bit of experience point me in the direction of the cheapest place to buy RAM for this computer?

Thanks

memoryc.com is good; free delivery. There's a configurator too.

Don't forget to defragment. Three times in a row for best results on XP. This could take a long time.

Hi all,

Is there any chance someone could confirm that

this

is compatible with my Dimsension 9150.

Sorry to ask but I'm a bit out of my depth with the memory spec etc. and I'm hoping to take care of this for my folks. It seems to be the same but I might be missing something.

Thanks.

It probably would work but I don't think that play deliver hardware to Ireland. I'd recommend that you buy in pairs.

Also beware that - depending on the OS - it may not support more than 3GB.
