.
To increase your physical RAM
go to Crucial.com and run their free Memory tool,
and it will tell you exactly which kind of physical memory (stick) your computer should have; AND how much.
To increase your "virtual" RAM from ROM (free hard drive space) do as below. You will need considerable free hard drive space on your compuer to increase these settings.
TO INCREASE VIRTUAL MEMORY ALLOCATION:
1. Start> RIGHT click MyComputer > Properties >
2. tab for Advanced > frame for Performance > click button Settings
3. window Performance Options >
tab Advanced > Frame for Virtual memory > click button Change >
4. window Virtual Memory > Frame Paging File >
Before changing the paging file size note the Registry size frame amount, and subtract the amount you've set aside for Maximum registry size, from the free Drive space amount.
You can set your paging file up to the difference.
(except leave free hard drive space for future downloads).
Example:
Minimum 800 < for WinXP
Maximum 2800 < gives you 2 Gigs of virtual memory on demand.
5. click OK
6. Restart your pc
;)

Maybe! However a better solution would be to check on how many applications your computer loads when it boots and has running in the background. Reducing the number of programs that automatically load when you power up can increase your computer's speed without having to add RAM.

Buy compatible ram. Make sure you know what ram you have and match it with a bigger chip or run in parralel. Easy to install just plug in and go!
