Hey Guys,

I have an E-510 and was thinking about moving over from Windows 7 x86 to Windows 7 x64. Dell.com says that my system has a max ram of 4gb, as do several other memory companies. The Crucial website, however, says it supports 8gb.

Are any of you running more than 4gb on an E510?

Thanks,

David

If Dell saids it supports up to 4GB then it probably only supports up to 4GB. Why would you need 8GB.

Did you ever try this or get a response on using 8GB in the e510?

Derra - both you and the originator seem to be getting little response. I suggest you either simply call Dell and ask or try the Dell user forum.
