Will an upgrade to 256MB RAM on an old PC work?”
Here is a link to the TigerDirect page that has RAM compatible with your machine. You should be able to find it from other merchants as well: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=548&Nav=|c:147|&Sort=0&Recs=10 You should add as much RAM as your motherboard will support. All versions of Windows will work better with it. For 2000 or XP, you should have at least a GB for best results. For Vista, don’t try to live with less than 2GB, it’s a real RAM-Hog.
