    Memory question

    Ok i have a computer with 512mb DDR ram (i dont know specifics of it) and an old computer with 256 DDR ram innit.

    I was wondering if theres any possibility of putting the old on into my new computer???Will they conflict each other???

    Find out what speed they are, it will more than likely have it written on the side of the ram. They will run at the slowest speed of either of them, you wont be able to get dual channel out of them if they are different speeds.

    If they are DDR as stated then just bung em in..
    The worst its gonna do is run at the pace of the slowest module..
