You appear to need more disc space not memory. Two very different things. An external hard disc will give you more space and they are as cheap as chips these days. Check Tescoes. (Maxtor are good). If your PC is runnning dog slow then you might require more memory to speed it along. Hope this helps. Jamike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I reckon he means "the hard drive" Do a disk defrag? Delete any games or music that you don't use? I pulled up about 2GB doing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
