I'm trying to breathe some last breaths into an old computer my kids use. It has 4 slots which are currently occupied by 1 GB DIMMS. I searched a bunch of Dell forums and some people were able to get this system to upgrade to 8GB of ram while others could only get the 4GB to work. I don't wan

Have you already replaced the hard drive with a cheap SSD? If not, I would do that first before RAM upgrades. On Tue, Dec 12, 2017 at 1:15 PM, Nathan O'Brennan wrote: > > I'm trying to breathe some last breaths into an old computer my kids use. > It has 4 slots which are currently occupied by 1

What CPU? If it's as old as I think it is, it only has a 32-bit CPU and more ram won't help much. Sent from [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com), Swiss-based encrypted email. Original Message On Dec 12, 2017, 13:15, Nathan O'Brennan wrote: > I'm trying to breathe some last bre

I just picked up a Roku device for $29 at Walmart. It has "Youtube" but I don't know if that is different from "Youtube TV" and I don't recall seeing "Youtube TV" as an app. Are they one and the same app? On 2017-12-12 16:49, Steve B wrote: > For those of you here on the list who have subscribed

Also make sure your chipset will carry over the 64 bit instructions. I have run into a few that even with a 64 bit cpu they didn't carry it through. Virus-free. www.avast.co
