RAM UPGrade

[jlehmo7]

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.

 

[jlehmo7]

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

 

[SavvyLady]

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

 

[jlehmo7]

it only had 92mb of ram before

 

[SavvyLady]

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

 

[SavvyLady]

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

also... do you have ad-aware?

 

[jlehmo7]

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.

 

[jlehmo7]

yeah, i use mcafees and ad-aware.
