Oh, dude, upgrading from 256mb of RAM to 2GB RAM is like going from a tricycle to a sports car in the tech world. You'd need to buy a compatible 2GB RAM stick, open up your computer (carefully, not like you're trying to break into a safe), find the old RAM slot, pop it out, and slide in the new one. It's like giving your computer a caffeine boost, but without the jitters.
It depends on what type of RAM
256mb - 2g
Ram is memory. That means you have 67MB of ram left for you to use out of your 256MB of memory.
256mb system (XDR) and 256mb video (GDDR3)
If your computer has 256mb ram only, you can add another 256mb ram in it..just go to your nearest computer store and buy another 256mb ram stick. once you have that, open you PC housing and put it in Dimm1 or Dimm 2.
It depends on the model. No model officially supports more than 1 GB of RAM. Only the models that have USB 2.0 ports support 2 GB of RAM (unofficially).
It won't run.
By today's standards 256mb ram is pretty low.
cant see why not
If you're talking about a PC, 256MB for RAM is not very good, no. Unless you're running an old OS and old versions of programs, you won't get much done.
Presumably you are talking about replacing (upgrading) system RAM, as its been a long time since 256mb or 2 gb hard drives were common. That being said, replacing the RAM in your computer will have no effect on the data stored on your computer. Long-term storage of user data is done with the hard disk. System RAM is temporary storage only, and is wiped every time the computer is powered down.
Minimum requirements on the box say 512MB of ram.
