When we assemble a PC, we need to install a RAM card into the socket to give the PC a RAM. However, can we just take any RAM card and just slot into the motherboard? How do we determine what is the RAM card to use for each motherboard?

Does anyone know what brand this 500w psu is on my 2nd rig? The only significant details I see aside from the voltage tables are:

- Model: LC-B500E (I don't know whether this is a standard code regardless of brand/manufacturer)

- A big red letter "I" symbol with 5 horizontal bars on top of it

- switching power supply next to the symbol (although this isn't really useful)

So far it has been working fine for about 8 months now but I need to know if this thing is reputable and has redundancies for those unsettling power anomalies so that I could just leave it as is.

When I turn my PC on for the first time in the morning (or after it hasnt been on for a while) it seems to be booting up - the lights are on and there is whirring but the screen remains on standby. I have to leave the PC for about 15 minutes before forcing shutdown and trying again - after this point, the PC boots normally with no problems.

Has anybody got any advice - I have been told that it could be the PSU that is not powerfull enough but want to check if anybody has any ideas before I fork out for a new PSU

PS> the PC is a DELL with different parts in it - 2 hard drives, a geforce 6600, DVD Drive, dvd writer 1 GB ram.. if that helps - and I'v just installed a fresh copy of XP on it.

I have 2G of (Kingston) RAM. However, most of the time, the softwares (e.g. CorelDraw) didn't fully use RAM and yet they go very slow. I have XP on 2.6 D-Core.

Thank you.

ok just tried to install a cd burner into my motherinlaws pc, it previosly only had a cdrom in it but they want the burner in it too.
The cdrom is plugged into the second ide port on the motherboard and its the only thing on this circut. So i pug it into the free spot on this cable (which took up the middle space on the cord as the cdrom was already plugged into the end of cable) set it as master as the other one was setup up as slave then tryies to run the system.
It took forever to get thru the startup sequence ( where you hit del for bios) and eventually (like 2 mins later) loaded next screen but failed to boot up windows it told me to insert system disk.

I have done this once before on win 98 and had no probs i also have changed the cd burner to a dvd burner on my xp system and had no problems so why did this stuff up?

Just wondering if it would look at it like PC2700 & just run slower than it would as PC3200?

Someone gave me 2 gigs of PC3200 & I am not ready to build a new machine right now. Might just save it until I do build a new one in the next few months.

So I tried to roll back my video driver on XP, computer restarted all funky looking (only 8 colors). I don't know what I pressed, but when the computer automatically restarted, nothing comes up. I've tried to reboot in safe mode, a long list of drivers come up, and then nothing...computer just sits with that list. I tried to do a reboot to the last time the system worked correctly, and nothing but a black screen. Now I don't want to do a clean install, because I need to retrieve files from the computer, so how can I get my system to boot up?
