Secondly, the amount of RAM my System recognizes is 0.99GB
Thirdly, the test thing came up with 1GB of memory (512)(512) and the system preformance is about 4/5 of the way to the end.
Surely this suggests there's nothing worng with the RAM???
Should i try and reseat the memory or buy the upgrade that cam recommended with the test result.
