128mb ram

[Phsyko_74]

In truth about RAM Windows 95 and 98 do not utilize RAM well over 128mb. NT does though. SO people with NT4 and WIn 2000 will have better systems with more RAM because WIN 2000 and NT are designed to work with RAM up to 4GB. WIn 95 and Win 98 WILL work with more then 128mb but it doesn't utilize it as well as it does with no more then 128mb. I had a system with 256mb and then changed to 128mb. It ran more efficient at 128 then it did at 256. If you are using more then 128mb the problem comes in when you go to shut down a program windows does not always free that memory back up for other programs to use. You can corect this with some memory programs but the best thing to do is go no more 128mb on 95 & 98. Like I said though with NT 4 and 2000 you can go as high as 4GB. If you run 2000 adv. server you can go as high as 8GB!!! My server(running Win 2000 Server) runs 256mb of RAM and my other 2 computers(running Win 98) only have 128mb of RAM. It is your choice what you want to do but these are the facts. More RAM DOESN'T always mean a faster system unless that system is designed for more RAM like NT and the Mac systems are.......
