Correct but the totals do not add up.
1024 + 512 = 1536 - 64 = 1472
Maybe I'm not adding it right but i should be close.
Either way if the system is running faster then we should have the original issue resolved.
Have you tried to play a video now to see if it is still choppy?
I have 2 gigs of memory and depending on where I go to watch a video it will still be choppy.
Buffering along with bandwidth will affect the video.

And I haven't even started drinking yet!
1024 + 448 does = 1472 and not 1072.
Good thing you caught that rshaffer61. The op would have been really confused.

I've had 6 pots so far today and thinking of making another.
I swear I'm percolating.
Does coffee count as a drinking?

yes i got it from task manager. i went to system properties and it showed 1.5gb ram. its not running slow anymore i just wanted to make sure something wasnt taking up alot of memory or that the computer wasnt reading all of it. ive seen that in other posts on this site. its showing 30mb free now under the task manager. is there a program thats more accurate or consistant?

At least we can share a cup :)
How is the system running now that you have had the new memory installed?
Video's working better?

ive watched a few movies and none of them have been choppy and overall performance is better. programs come up in seconds rather than minutes. i do believe the problem is fixed, thanks
