Default Ram memory question

Hi everyone,

IŽd like to know how does the dual core works in Windows Xp. Because mu cpu has 2 Gb (1Gb each) and i want to upgrade it, but people says that is worthless because system does not support more than 3gb.

Thanks!

Sounds like you are getting your Gigahertz and Gigabytes mixed up. Your cpu which runs at Gigahertz and your RAM memory which has 2Gb at present. You need a 64 bit version of Windows so you can use 4Gb RAM fully. You would need to check your motherboard spec to see if it can be upgraded concerning the cpu.

so regarding this question Nikosony

If I get the 64bit version of XP I can run my pc at 4gigg of ram and XP will recognise it fully. What if I have shared intergrated graphics upto 1gigg will this read ok on normal xp or do I still need 64bit version.

My Cpu is dual core AMD athlon 2.8ghz x 2 (5.6ghz)

Your advise would be great m8
