My take is that the message is perfectly normal when you change the amount of

Does the machine not function when the RAM has been changed? Is the full

Passwords have to be stored on the computer or network so the OS can
verify what is typed in. The secure way to do this is to never store an
actual password, but instead a hashed version. So when a password is
typed it is hashed by the computer and compared to the stored version.
This way

Assuming it's the correct type of RAM and you're installing it
properly, it's just bad. Replace it. These days I wouldn't mess around
with 512; slots are too valuable. Get at least a gig.

A CAC card (Computer Authorization Card???) is a ROM that plugs into a USB port

Your SSAN is already a national ID for anyone with even a modicum of financial
assets. If banks start offering them, I'll take one. A lot quicker and easier

You are looking for a very small SD card, I cannot remember what the
limit is on FAT16 but any 8 MB or similar card will work.
Stick it in the camera and format it.

It seemed to be the default setting for Windows Media Player. I have no
particular allegiance to this format other than wanting the files stored
on the PC's external hard drive as a backup. Storing them with iTunes is
not preferred due to the fact that they are MP3 files and inaccessible
Normal maximum size for storage formatted FAT16 is 2 GB. If you format the
card using the camera, it should work. If the card is sold by the camera
manufacturer, it should already be formatted correctly for the camera.
