Hello,
I am new here so go easy on me if this isn't a good question. I found this forum from another one.
Anyway, I just used SiSoftware Sandra to do a memory benchmark and this is the response I got...
Notice N5406 - System bandwidth appears to be memory limited. Generally this means that memory bandwidth is < 50% FSB bandwidth, thus CPU is starved. This generally indicates a mismatch between memory and system. Note that this does not indicate that memory timings are wrong, but the memory itself is slow.
Fix: Use higher performance memory (e.g. DDR or RDRAM) or use any additional memory channels (if present) to increase memory bandwidth performance.
My Question, is this basically saying I need to add another stick of memory or what?
I run a P4 2.4 ghz at 256MB DDR-SDRAM and use XP home.
