Win2000 Pro and Additional Ram

[cputnam]

Was originally running 128mb SDRAM in my system. With NTFS, there was a lot of disk thrashing, etc. Due to a lack of operator intelligence, I wound up having to FDISK and reinstall everything.

Fortunately, the additional 128mb RAM I ordered came in. Needless to say, the $$ spent was well worth it. Noticed less disk thrashing at start-up, faster loading of applic's, web pages, etc, and, it seems that the color intensity/visual quality of the G400 is greatly improved.

Best advice? If you're running Win2000 Pro, 256mb of RAM will be well worth it!

The color of the G400 is improved??? That must be a trick of the mind, unless you sub-consciously changed to a 32bpp desktop. RAM shouldn't effect the G400 like you describe. Psycho-somatics, me thinks.

Psycho-somatic - I resemble that!

I upgraded from 128 to 256 too, but I didn't notice any better colors. Hmmmph, my substandard G400

Guess that depends on what you had to smoke beforehand.
