You can find out how much RAM (memory) is on your computer by checking the System Information dialog box to see the installed physical memory, or you can go to Control Panel. The amount of RAM you need depends on the operating system you are using. You also should consult your owners manual which will show you the number of slots on how much RAM it will accept.

If one is finding that it is necessary to upgrade the memory of one's PC one must first find out how much memory the computer has and how much is needed. One then can determine how much memory can be added and it would then be installed by putting into the slots that are available for RAM.

Your commit charge on your computer task manager maximum was 2440my computer went for some repairs and when it returnedthe total commit charge was 1491 what the heck does this mean?

That depends. The "commit charge" is the maximum amount of physical and virtual memory available on your computer. Your computer will have a certain amount of physical memory (RAM) installed in it; each program that's opened uses a certain amount of memory. If your computer needs more memory it uses part of your hard disk that's called a "paging file"; it's kind of like a reserve gas tank as far as memory goes. This is also called "virtual memory". So, if you had 1 gigabyte of memory installed and your paging file size was 2 gigabytes, your total "commit charge" would be 1 gig + 2 gig for a total of 3 gigabytes, or 3000000K. So, for your numbers to go down like that, either your paging file size was reduced or the amount of physical memory in your system was reduced. You'd need to know how much memory was installed before your computer got repaired, and what the technician did when he/she repaired your computer. Did they remove any memory? Did they swap out the motherboard (the "guts" of the computer) with one that had less memory installed? OR for some reason did they just reduce the size of the paging file? Answering those questions will tell you what happened.
