Thank you.

I suggest you get newer faster ram.
From now on I’m only giving answers as specific as the questions 
get the one you can afford
Hey, I thought this was ITT: we praise Raminator…
R.A.M doesn’t go out of date…
In any case we will need to know your system components, specifically what motherboard you are using so we can determine what type of RAM is compatible with your system.
I’m going to go ahead and say that no self-respecting PC user should have less than 1 gig of RAM these days… and if you’re a gamer you should really looking more at having 2 or 3 gigs of RAM.
The normal for a gaming machine is 4 in my eyes. Some people go up to 8, but like you said, any PC should definately not have less than 2.
.
If your RAM is uh…old…then my guess is your motherboard is also. In which case getting brand new DDR3 probably won’t work. My suggestion is to find out what kind of RAM you have in there and then buy some more like it (it should be on the cheap). More RAM is better RAM.
OR
Do what Mangled* said and give us your mobo model.
If you want the absolute easiest solution, go to crucial.com and scan your system. If you’re a hardcore gamer, you’ll want ram with tighter timings, but you’re obviously not a hardcore gamer. No offense.
Raminator’s visit coming in 3… 2… 1…
I’d recommend it.
I have 2.5GB, works great.
Windows XP doesn’t use more than 3 and a bit, no matter how much more you put in, so it depends on your platform.
3.5 on 32 bit, but 64 bit XP can use more then your motherboard can handle.
I was simplifying.

Okay, I see now. I’ll probably go with 3 gigs of RAM.
Thank you all.

I use 6 gig high speed RAM on XP 64bit, it’s really fast but it gets very warm so you might want to consider cooling if you get RAM running 1333 MHz+
I use 6 gig for developing software, I think you will be fine with 4.
I say a prayer to you every time I make a post, and everyone I ban I dedicate to you as sacrifice.
I run xp.
