Do this while your system is up and running the things you normally keep running all the time:
1. Start/Run "taskmgr" OK 2. Click on the Performance tab 3. Look under Physical Memory for Total, Available, and System cache. If (System cache + Available) < (Total / 2) , then you will probably see some improvement. And since you caused me to go check out the on-sale memory, I'll just say that while it's probably OK for your XP2200+ requirements, I won't buy PNY memory any more. I had one go bad and had to wait more than a month for warranty replacement. Plus PNY requires a copy of the original receipt to honor their lifetime warranty, not the case with Kingston (at least not the last time I had to return one, a couple years ago).

Will I see any improvement by adding another 512 MB? I ask because Staples has 512 MB for $45 after rebate.
