I have built 6 systems with this configuration. Have used both XP home with and with out sp2 as well as 1 system with XP pro and 1 With Vista. Never any problems other than 1 MB DOA. Was replaced immediately by super Tiger service. Would recomend to anyone using the system for none gaming. Needes 2 more ram slots to be gamer. Never any problems loading OS from OEM versions. Just use a good quality HD and works great. |

I brought this home and built it. Right away I found out that the Bios did not support the processor without an upgrade. Also, will not install Windows XP without SP2. Had to make a bootable slipstream Windows disk in order to install OS. Don't buy unless you have proper instalation disk. |

What You Should Know
|
Before you buy - make sure your motherboard is compatible with this memory. For example, DDR Memory won't work with motherboards designed for only DDR2, SDRAM or RDRAM memory, and vice versa. Only use the memory speed recommended by your motherboard's manufacturer. Please read the specifications carefully or call us for expert advice.

 Know Your BIOS!
With today's rapid pace of
design advancement, new product updates come fast and furious. This is
especially true of board-level products, like Motherboards, Video Cards, GPU
Processor Cards, and other main edge connector products. The good news is
that manufacturers have designed in the ability to easily update your
product BIOS, which is sometimes important for full compatibility. So before
installing or combining components, it is always a good idea to check your
product's current BIOS revision against the manufacturer's website, to
determine if an update is needed, or advisable. The manufacturer's
documentation will guide you through this process if it is necessary.
However, remember that most products are designed to be plug-n-play out of
the box!But
What Is BIOS?
Most electronic devices,
from computers to MP3 players have software embedded in their hardware.
These are programs that tell the device how it will function - from basic to
advanced functions - so that it knows how to start, and perform the most
simple and complex tasks it was designed for. We call this software the BIOS
(sometimes also called Firmware). In computer jargon, BIOS stands for "Basic
Input/Output System", but in reality, there is very little "basic" about it.
In your computer's motherboard for example, it tells your computer how to:
start up; communicate with hardware components, such as hard drives and
video; how to move data in and out of memory; and even talk to your USB
connected devices. Without your BIOS, your device is JOOL (just out of
luck!).
Keep in mind that changing a PC's BIOS
settings incorrectly can cause the PC to malfunction. If this happens, a
BIOS reset is usually available, and will need to be performed to return the
BIOS to the default "factory settings." This is usually activated by a
jumper on the motherboard. [Warning: always read
your motherboard or system manual thoroughly, before upgrading your BIOS, or
making BIOS setting changes!] Though normally, most incorrect
settings should have no negative affect on your PC, but please follow each
step explicitly since some can.
Remember: It is recommended that you reboot
after each individual BIOS setting change to ensure that your system
functions normally. If you make numerous changes before rebooting, and your
system will no longer boot, you won't know which change is responsible for
the failure.
Updating Your BIOS
Before you consider updating your BIOS, be sure you need to - not every
update will be needed or even benefit you. Also be sure you are up to
the technical challenges you will face. Changing the version of BIOS
stored in your computer or motherboard is not the kind of activity
recommended for novice users. To perform this successfully, you need
to be comfortable and familiar with your BIOS settings, and be able to
download and apply the BIOS Update without issue. For this reason, it
is best to let professional computer technicians do this work for you, if or
when it is needed. However, if you know what you are doing, it is a
fairly easy task.
Before Updating BIOS, consider the
following:
- The reasons for updating your BIOS -
frequently, updating is unnecessary
- Identifying your BIOS chip - if
replacing is the approach required
- Replacing your BIOS chip - this requires
significant care, and can void your warranty
- Locating your latest BIOS version -
required for any update
- Flashing your BIOS - make sure you have
a UPS!
- Live update - great for minor or quick
updates - again a UPS is vital - a partial update can make your system
inoperative
- Configuring your new BIOS settings -
read the manual! twice for good measure!

Upgrading Your Memory to Improve Performance
As programs get more complex, you’ll discover that your trusty PC may not
be working as quickly or efficiently as it used to. While your impulse might
be to purchase a new, more powerful computer, you can dramatically improve
performance simply by upgrading your memory. For far less than what you’d
pay for a new computer, a memory upgrade will often have your PC working
faster and more efficiently than ever before. Plus, it’s relatively easy
to install new memory and only takes a few minutes of your time. For our
step-by-step guide to simple memory installation click here. |

How Much
Memory Do You Really Have?
When you look at the specifications for a computer, it will display the
installed memory, and typically the maximum memory that can be installed.
However, while these are real values, they represent a potential useable
memory depending upon the installed operating system, and other factors. The actual useable memory may be different
(lower) from these values.
The reason is simply that a computer may have a limitation in the operating
system (such as Windows 32 bit versions), or configured to use shared memory,
which reduces the amount of RAM that is available to the CPU by using
some of it for other purposes, such as for video memory. In some
cases, you can control the maximum useable memory through system settings,
by upgrading from a 32 bit to a 64 bit version of Windows XP or Vista, or by upgrading to a video card that has internal onboard video memory.
But always
remember, that the amount of memory that your system reports, is not always
the amount of actual installed memory. For example, if you have 4GB
installed, 32 bit versions of Windows will typically report 3.2GB due to a
limitation of Windows itself. Also note that different Windows
programs report available and maximum memory differently, which can be
confusing. If you find that you need more
memory, we suggest expanding your system memory, since this is the most
effective performance increase, and the one that is easiest to perform .
