    XP will only just run with 128meg.


    Do you have loads of apps that load on startup?

    while we're on this subject do you have to get pentium 4 specialist memory if you're running a pentium machine, or can you just get cheap oem memory. i only ask coz the price difference for 256 MB is about £70! :eek:
