Hi guys I recently tried upgrading my ram because my computer is flat out ****. I was at 2 gigs so I put a 3rd gig in. Works perfectly fine, but then I tried putting a 4th gig in, it doesn't install or anything. Anyone know how I can fix this issue? Also I'm looking for a place to buy a cheap but good video card.

If your Windows version is 32bit, it won't accept anymore that 3.6GB RAM.

Also what type of RAM is it? DDR2 or DDR3?

If it's DDR2, i would just upgrade everything lol.

If it's 32-bit(You said 2GB RAM so I'm pretty sure it is), you can't have 4GB of RAM in it.
Also, upgrading RAM won't really help your computer much, It's most likely a slow processor and/or a terrible video card(or onboard graphics).
