How do you find out what kind of RAM you have. I know that you can find out the number of RAM, but how can you find what is compadiable with your computer's RAM.

Or what your computer's RAM is?

Actauly, i think theres only 2 TRUE way's to find out...

A) look at your computers booklet thingy that has the information for your motherboard...

B) open up your computer and remove a stick of RAM, there should be a sticker that say's something like

"64 MB PCI133 SDR" or something like that

PCI133 is the type of ram you want... SDR is the data rate of the ram

I think, for the most part most machines take SDR, unless you specificaly asked for a DDR supporting motherboard you probably didnt get it, cause that stuff is SWEET!

Personaly i can take both, but i dont have any DDR

But ya, Mainly be concerned with the other one...

Like i use PCI 133 or somethin along those lines, but im not TOTALY sure, cause RAM really isnt my thing, but thats the general idea...
