Default Question about RAM



These are the screenshots of my system. As you can tell it's old and crappy but I've never had a problem with it.

http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/915g/index.htm
http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/915p/index.htm

These are the 2 links from the Intel website, I believe my motherboard is the first one, as CPUZ tells me its socket LGA775.

My question is, will this RAM work with my system? Assuming I take out what RAM I have now of course.

The screenshot of CPUZ is not showing up when I preview my post, so here is the link in case its not there.

Assuming you have identified your board and linked correctly to the Intel site then yes, that chipset will support DDR2 533MHz

EDIT: Look up the board model number, is it a dual DIMM socket board? If not then I'm afraid the DDR2 won't work

Is there a way to get that without looking at the board itself?

Here is the front page of CPUZ.

Being a Nec proprietry board I would say your chances are pretty slim, I've done a quick model number search but no result, what is the computer model number? Nec what?

According to the receipt, which for some reason I still have, it is a;
NEC Powermate ML7 N8001 NO MO

Googling that only brings up this page, which is not my PC. My case is much larger then that.

Guess you're going to have to look at the DIMM slots then.

I doubt it will be both DDR and DDR2 but you never know.
