Default RAM Identification

Hi

My PC's OS is Windows Vista Premium. Where do I look to find out the type and amount of RAM, if I wanted to upgrade it ?

Many thanks

Dean

if crucial doesn't work like it did on my desktop you can always open up your computer and take out the ram cart and check the model number. Then search it on online stores like ebay or newegg and you get the same ram with different capacities. One last thing, when you type the model number you should type it without the capacity(256mb, 512mb etc.) that way you get a lot of different capacity ram carts in your searches.
