I hate to ask stupid questions, so I'm in a world of hate right now...
I want to upgrade my system memory from 64mb to 128mb (or more, maybe?), and I -think- I know what I need to do--buy a 64mb PC100 SDRAM, right? But, I think I've got both 72pin and 168pin sockets, and my current 64mb stick is in a (unless I'm totally off-base here--it's the black socket that requires the stick with two notches) 168pin socket. So, based on this, should I get another 168pin stick or a 72pin stick, or does it matter? And, if I wanted to go to 192mb, does it matter that if I added a single 128mb stick, or should I go with two 64mbs?
I am a total goofus on all things PC-hardware, and I'm hoping that you can clear this up for me before I destroy my machine.
Thanks,
