[computer-tech-support: 7878] Re: motherboard replacement

I would absolutely recommend upgrading. Not just because of the RAM
amount - which you're right is pretty small (and im guessing you meant
128 MB?) - but because Windows ME is one of the worst OS's put out by
Microsoft and has a whole slew of problems -_-'

Honestly, If you usually have 1 Gig of RAM, why not go to XP? It's
still not top-of-the-line, but it's a good option and the recommended
RAM amount is only 128 MB. So if you put 1 GB you'd be good to go.
