I loaded this program. It shows PC3200(200 mhz) for each slot that has the memory stick. Mobo is a AU31 made by First International Computer. Nvidia chipset nforce2. Clueless to what this all means. Bus speed is 200 mhz rated FSB 400 mhz.

It means that you're already running at full speed with 400 MHz RAM...on the first page, there sould be something that reads HT Link. That is the FSB it should be something like 1000MHz.

I do not see a HT link on the first page.

Also..

If you have a 1GB stick and a 512MB stick in a dual system.. I'm pretty sure you'll still be using virtual memory (ugh) when the weakest link in the chain has hit it's limits (512) on it's part of the workload.

I added a 1 gig and left in the 512 stick as well. I show 1.5 RAM. The game is much improved with speed! I also downloaded a program that show how much memory is available and it is around 1000+ MB free to use. Definite marked improvement over just 1 gig.
