Right-click your Taskbar

Click "Task Manager"

Under the "Performance" tab you should see how much "Total Physical Memory" you have.

How do I know if added memory is working? Hello,
I have just added a memory module to my system. The " My Computer specs haven't altered nor has the bios" how do I know if the additional memory is being recognized and utilized?
Thanks,
mbk

mbk You started this thread, received the reply from TheShooter93 and then today you have started another thread pasted above to which you have received two replies, one from me, you have yet to reply to either thread you have started.

http://www.crucial.com/ Follow this link and do a scan . It will let you know what you have onboard and how much your computer can handle . Please don't start more than one thread for the same problem . It gets too confusing for us all .

Right click "My Computer", choose "Properties" and you should see the processor and memory towards the bottom of the box that opens up.
