Modern Software, for example the new Live Messenger and the latest version of iTunes, make more and more demands from our hardware. The number 1 cause of a machine’s struggle to work quickly and efficiently, is a shortage of RAM (Memory).
To find out how much RAM you currently have and the cost of upgrading, go to http://www.crucial.com/uk/ and click on System Scanner. Follow the instructions and you results will be displayed in your default browser.
Feel free to bookmark / add the result page to your favourites and e-mail me the link if you would like any further advice. Installing the new RAM is fairly straightforward but you **MUST** take ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) precautions to avoid damaging the chip.
I service many computers with low amounts of RAM and have some very happy Customers who have taken the plunge and gone for this cost effective and immediately noticeable performance improvement.
