Computer memory sticks come in many sizes. One needs to choose the size most appropriate to one's electronic devices. One also has to keep in mind the amount of memory one requires before purchasing any stick.

What part of the desktop computer saves memory?

How do you get more video memory for your personal computer?

Add RAM! Up to the limit that your motherboard can support. Open the case, remove the old, smaller memory card, plug in a larger memory card that is compatible with the OLD memory card. You add more RAM. The motherboard on your computer has sockets to take RAM. There are different types of RAM so you need to get the right version. There is a limit to the size of the RAM that your Motherboard can support, and that varies from machine to machine. If you don't know the details take it to a computer shop and get them to upgrade it for you. They'll be able to tell you what type it takes and how much you can put in.


How do you fix a printer that is short on memory?

Almost always it is not the printer that is short on memory, but the computer that is using it. And in fact, the computer may not be short on memory, but on disk space. The first fix, then, is to check that the disk drive where the print queue is kept (usually C:) has at least some free space. With modern operating systems (Windows XP and later), at least 500 megabytes should be available on your C: drive. If the printer itself is reporting that it is out of memory on its display, the only solution is to buy more memory for the printer. Most printers that use their own memory, rather than relying on the computer for storage, will have memory slots where some form of memory cartridge or stick can be inserted. Do not assume that if it is a standard size, that it is also a standard memory; printer manufacturers have proprietary memory, just as they have proprietary cartridges, and inserting standard computer memory into a printer's memory slot can destroy both printer and memory, and will certainly void any warranty you have. Contact the store where you bought the printer, or the printer manufacturer, for sources of compatible memory. Older printers would actually require that you buy an entire memory board, and install it inside the printer housing. Some such memory boards are available on eBay or other auction sites. If you need one, be certain that the memory board is for your exact model of printer, and check the seller's feedback before bidding.


I have connected my phone to my computer via USB cable but it is NOT listed on My Computer and the video file size that I want to upload it too big to be sent so what can I do to get it on my computer?

Well.. You could try to get a special program from the company, like Nokia has the PC Suite which allows you to connect your phone and transfer stuff. Try looking for a program or taking out the memory chip of the phone and putting it in your computer with a special connector.

Will my system run faster with if you install one stick of 512 Memory or two pair of 256MB memory?

In theory it will run faster with the 512Mb stick, as the computer only needs to send and receive date from one source, as opposed to two, which takes more system resources (regardless of the memory size of the two sticks).


How does a person install memory in a Dell Dimension 3000 computer?

Assuming you have at least one free memory bus on your motherboard, all you have to do is buy a stick of memory that is compatible with your computer, and plug it in (Be sure to be free of any static electricity when handling any computer hardware!). To do this read your computers info pamphlet or if you don't have it any more look it up online with your exact computer model. If you don't have a free memory bus then you can upgrade from your current memory stick size by removing the memory sticks and replacing them with new ones that are of higher value (EX: you have two sticks of 1gig ram replace with two sticks of 2gig ram)

Is memory size of mini computer is higher than micro computer?

Yes, with a small disclaimer. A micro computer, also known as a computer chip or chip is tiny, generally smaller than your finger. The memory available here is contained inside the chip. Size generally around kilo Bytes to mega Bytes. A mini computer is big. It is like a personal computer on steroids but still not as good a super computer. When referring to the memory here we usually think of separate memory modules, just like what you have in your home computer. Size generally from Giga Bytes and up. A mini computer does however consist of chips and this is where my disclaimer comes in. Chips interface external memory (which is also built of chips..) and the only limit here depends on how much the chip can address. Forgive my sloppiness and note that a micro computer chip is quite different from a memory chip, as the memory chip mainly stores and trancieves data while the micro computer can also execute a man made program...
