Hello, You might want to consider upgrading the ThinkCentre M51 8413 up to 4GB of RAM. The Intel Pentium 4 540 CPU is a 64-bit (EMT64, in Intel-speak) processor, so if you were to go to a 64-bit version of Windows XP or Vista (or Linux or other operating system) the CPU would be able to address all the memory.
