RAM UPGrade

AMD-K6 3D processor, 220MB total Ram, Win 98


I just added an SDRam 133/128mb to my computer. How can I maximize its performance? After I installed the card, the computer seems really slow.

 

Is it showing up? go to my computer & right click & go to properties ... see if its showing up.

 

I don't see it on there, but the amount of mb's increased under system resoures.

 

what was the reason you added RAM.. is there another problem?

 

it only had 92mb of ram before

 

what Im trying to get to is ... was you having troubles like this before you added the RAM?

 

do you have an anyi-virus program onboard & is it updated?

also... do you have ad-aware?

 

under the systems resources tab, it is showing that it is 29% free. I saved alot of stuff on zip, cleaned the temp files out of DOS, etc. It should be operating better that what it is.

 

yeah, i use mcafees and ad-aware.

then go to software envirement click the (+) plus
