I tried 512 SDRAM 133Mhz, then 256 SDRAM 133Mhz but in both cases it failed to work with it. It is an older Compaq machine. I had to shut it down yesterday to install the memory and after rebooting I saw that no swap was used. Today I see that a few KB of swap have already been used. Currently thy system has 320 MB RAM. > If you can add enough memory, so you computer don't swap, you are gone to get > best performance. Yep, the problem only is why it wouldn't accept it. I am taking the specification it to the computer shop and will see if they are any wiser. Thanks anyway! -- Zbigniew Szalbot
