If I take out the only memory bar I have and replace it will it erace all my memory?

Your memory has nothing to do with what you have stored on your hard drive.  You can replace all the memory chips you want and don't have to worry about losing what you have saved.  Hope this helps.

What you are referring to as memory is called hard drive space.  These are two different things.\n\nYou can purchase a new hard drive with a larger capacity, or simply add another hard drive to the system.  The drive containing your Operating System (Most likely a version of Windows) is the system drive.  Installing a second drive as a slave will allow for additional space.  You can save your music, videos, games, etc here and, if you want, install a different Operating System (which you could do on your system drive as well).\n\n60GB should be plenty of space for you to install and play your game.  If you are low on space, this will slow your system down anyway.  Therefore, you should get rid of content on the drive that is useless such as programs you no longer use and trash files.

Those are memory addresses. that means your RAM is bad most likely. 90% i would say

Memory card as in a stick of RAM? If you were replacing a stick of ram, but you tried to put the old one back in, you might not have pushed the stick all the way in. Make sure the tabs on the sides are snapped in place.\n\nIf your RAM is not fully inserted, your computer will not boot.\n\nThere's also the possibility that you released a static discharge when you touched the ram while trying to replace it.

Not in XP.  Vista will have a feature called Super Prefetch or something like that that supposedly will allow you to do this.  But there are many reasons why you wouldn't want to do this.     \n\nNumber one is the fact that those USB Drives can be knocked out or disconected fairly easily.  And were you to, let's say, be running a very important application that happened to be using said device when it got disconnected (read moved a few milimeters) then you could have a serious system crash that might even result (if this feature is designed poorly) in a reinststall.  \n\nNumber two is memory bandwidth.  USB 2.0 Moves at best at 480 MegaBits per second.  The memory on your system should be (if it is at all modern) 3 times that.  So performance wise you'd take a hit.  \n\nFinally:  RAM is cheap.  1 GB DDR 400 Costs a little more than a 1 GB Flash Drive but isn't constrained by either issue 1 or 2.  We aren't talking hundreds and hundreds of dollars here

No it is not a problem.  You prob have an onboard video card that is using that memory.  Most likely the video card is 32MB, but there is a slight chance that it could be 64MB card, but its only using half of its resources.  A good way to tell is go to the manufacturers website and look up your model number.  Usually they divide up the components so just look under the video category and it should tell you the size.  If its 32MB then that is most likely your issue.

No there's not a way around it I'm afraid, you'll have to buy more memory. The good news is it'll be cheap for you, probably less than your monthly broadband subscription as you probably have an older system. If you post your RAM specs on here or email me I can tell you what you need and how to install it into your system

If your motherboard can handle the ram. Some motherboards have a limit and sometimes the only way is to change the mb.

Yes! A memory dump is very severe. You might have a severe spywayre or hijacker on your computer. Your best bet is taking the computer in for a look or completely rebooting your computer to new.

You will probably have to reinstall most of your applications. \n\nThe Registry is where many applications store information they need to work. When you reinstall XP, you also overwrite the Registry, so any information stored there by your applications will be lost.

crucial.com sells good memory, and they even have a program that will tell you exactly which memory your computer can take.\n\nGood luck!

go to http://www.crucial.com and  it will tell you the excat amount of memory your system uses and the type

Only solution to this is to get more working memory.  You can buy it, go to Walmart or Best Buy and tell them what you need.  It's really just about your only option.  Sorry!

You know... you could just buy the Windows Vista and install it on your computer. It would erase all the memory it had, but if you want Vista that badly, you could save the things you need onto a pen drive or something before installing it.

I would recommend going to http://www.crucial.com/index.asp and using their memory finder if you ever have another question like this.  They also have an auto detect memory feature (see sources) if you don't know the model number or it's a custom built computer.  Once you know, then buy it cheaper somewhere else like newegg.  Give a man a fish and all that...
