ok, first, I need to know what kind of RAM a Dell 2400 desktop needs, and second, I need to know how to get the side off of that same copmuter. I've already taken the side off to put a wireless card in, I just can't remember how. thanks for the help/
You probably have to unscrew a couple screws on the back to take the side case off.. And RAM wise I believe you are supposed to install the same brand of RAM that is currently installed ( I may be mistaken someone else correct me if I'm wrong ). And it looks like your comp is running DDR 400/ PC-3200 http://www1.us.dell.com/content/pro...00?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&~tab=specstab#tabtop Might I suggest buying your computer hardware off Newegg.com. Cheap and reliable.
thanks for the ram help, but there aren't any screws, I remember it being more of a slider type thing for the side edit:I just messed with all the stuff on the back, and pryed at the side with a screwdriver, and off it came!
crucial.com is great for memory, generally very reliable, not the cheapest. And they do stand behind their stuff, lifetime warranty. I've replaced a 256M chip a couple of times, they've shipped out free replacement twice so far. I've got a 6 year old laptop, so I don't think its quality problems, the 1st free replacement lasted a few months, that was probably bad, but the next replacement has been working like a charm. Nobody's perfect, so I value great customer service as much or more than the lowest rock bottom price. Randy
ah yes, PIBKAM to you too, Toasted edit: newegg is the SHINIEST website I have ever been too. I couldnt understand half of the large words(Cas latency? ECC? unbuffered or registered?) so I went to dell's website, and it did everything for me. but I think they make up words because, well, just read this.- Accessory, Software, Remote Control, Includes OVU Dongle, For Dell Dimension Desktops and Inspiron Notebooks Dell Part #: 412-0673, Manufacturer Part #: C6129
