I know NOTHING about computers, except how to delete a system32 folder (which I have already done, and it wasn't the brightest idea). However, I'm trying to install more RAM as I only have 512 MB right now, and being that it is 3-4 years old, it's starting to work slowly. I want to install 4gb. It doesn't seem that hard (thanks youtube), however, I can't find just one 4gb "stick". All they sell is 2-2gb "sticks" in one package. Is that the same thing as one 4gb "stick"? And what is the difference between DDR, DDR2, DDR3? How do I know what my computer supports?
