New 32 bit Windows can't address over 4G
I'll order the 2G stick. It's not much, but it's double what I've got now, so it'll probably help.

New Hmm ... Upgrade time
According to this I should be able to upgrade to 64 bit Windows 10. I'll have to check that there's decent driver support, but bumping this thing up to 8 GB will make it actually useful again.

     Anyone got some old laptop RAM lying around? - (drook) - (18) - Dec. 17, 2020, 10:47:27 AM EST
         I probably do. - (Another Scott) - (14) - Dec. 17, 2020, 02:34:09 PM EST
             Yes, SO-DIMM ... I assume the pin count is the same - (drook) - (13) - Dec. 17, 2020, 02:40:48 PM EST
                 I've got a lot of older DDR2 stuff, one stick of DDR3 - (Another Scott) - (12) - Dec. 20, 2020, 04:49:21 PM EST

                         Ah, that's right. Good plan. -NT - (Another Scott) - (1) - Dec. 20, 2020, 05:54:54 PM EST
                             Hmm ... Upgrade time - (drook) - Dec. 20, 2020, 09:52:38 PM EST
                     Got 64-bit Windows installed, just ordered the RAM - (drook) - (8) - Dec. 23, 2020, 01:36:05 PM EST
                         If performance is an issue, always go for dual-channel - (pwhysall) - (7) - Dec. 24, 2020, 02:53:05 AM EST
                             Does that mean it's better to have 2x4 than a single 8? - (drook) - (6) - Dec. 24, 2020, 09:55:30 AM EST
                                 Aye-firmative. - (pwhysall) - (5) - Dec. 24, 2020, 11:59:24 AM EST
                                     Well, I've already ordered the single 8 - (drook) - (4) - Dec. 24, 2020, 01:59:45 PM EST

                                             It's a single 2, so 5x performance here I come! -NT - (drook) - (2) - Dec. 24, 2020, 02:08:12 PM EST
                                                 Yup. - (Another Scott) - (1) - Dec. 24, 2020, 04:32:43 PM EST
                                                     This is anything but "recent" -NT - (drook) - Dec. 24, 2020, 05:21:10 PM EST
         I've got a few sticks... - (pwhysall) - (2) - Dec. 21, 2020, 01:36:38 AM EST
             They seem to still be producing it for laptops - (drook) - (1) - Dec. 21, 2020, 07:17:07 AM EST
                 DDR3 is still vee cheep. - (pwhysall) - Dec. 21, 2020, 10:42:53 AM EST
