Most older computer do have a limit to how much ram they can read. This is usually listed somewhere in the manual. All 32bit processors have a physical limit of 4gigs because a 32bit processor can only address 2^32 memory spots. 4 gigs is more than enough at this time for nearly any computer...

I'd say your cpu and video card are the weak links. A new motherboard and CPU wouldnt cost as little as 150-200 bucks. Your ram is decent speed and 512 is ample for nearly everything. I'd say pick up a 2500+ Barton and a mobo. throw in your ram and maybe a new video card, you can pick up a...

First off RDRAM was used in Dell's early P4 days. My friend has one of the first Dell's with a P4 and it uses the RDRAM that must be installed in pairs. Anyway your friends computer is just about on its last legs, i'd say if hes serious at all to just buy a new one. For around 500 bucks you...
