I had to work that day, and my wife was off and kept her cellular phone handy. Upon reaching work I called the toll-free support line only to hear that they were ‘experiencing a higher than normal call volume’. No surprise there. I don’t have a desk-type job, so I could not stay on hold for any great length of time. Fortunately, I do work in the vicinity of PCs, so I thought I would look at my ISP’s website to see if there was any information on local issues posted there.

PC Memory Upgrade Guide

So the time has come, your PC is slowing you down and taking forever to start your favorite applications. You have gone through the normal stuff we do when this happens and you are done defragging, scanning for viruses, uninstalling applications and all the other stuff.
This might be a good time to have a look at your computer’s memory usage, and compare that to how much RAM you actually have installed. I’m going to use my computer as an example here just to keep things simple. I’m at this point running Windows7 on a fairly new computer, and its chugging along just fine at about 40% of the 6 gigabytes I have installed. Read More→
