    Dell

    So my dad got me a new Dell, and he doesn't remember what RAM it has. I checked properties on Local Disc (C but it just said 300GB drive, I couldn't find anything on RAM, where can I find that out?

    It's an Inspiron 530 if that matters.

    With his galleons and guns
    Looking for the new world
    In that palace in the sun
    On the shore lay Montezuma
    With his cocoa leaves and pearls

    Start Menu -> My Computer / right click and hit properties
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Right click my Computer, go to Properties and on the bottome right of the System tab it will tell you processor speed, and RAM.

    Sweet thanks guys, I feel kind of retarded for having to ask that, but I honestly didn't know. 1GB of ram, not bad compared to the 156mb on my last POS.

    Are you running Vista or XP? 1GB on Vista is like towing a trailer with a Luv truck.

    I think no, because if you switch from Vista to XP (which i did) it was a nightmare with those drivers. but then again might be different in the other direction :/

    If you going to change operating systems, you mine as well reformat. It keeps things from getting gummed up
