Computers for Dummies
Fratres:
How would I go about adding RAM to my home PC? My machine's got 128Mb of RAM, and I've been told that adding another 128 would substantially improve system performance (in an unrelated note, Whitney's been told that drinking fewer than 17 beers in an evening will improve his performance in another venue). I went online to look at options for adding RAM, and it appears to require that I open up the CPU and do some rejiggeration. True, and if so, how hard is this to do?

I would get more than 128M ... if you are running or planning to run XP 512 is what is recommended.
Other option is to buy a $300 PC from dell/gateway/emachines/etc. with enough RAM already in there. Then you'd have no openning of the box issues. And we all know about your issues with box.
What squeaky said. Buy a new computer. Weren't you having problems with the network card on this one anyhow?

It's esay. Just make sure you get RAM that is compatible with your system.
Many new PCs are shipping with 1 Gig these days
