    Hey Guys,

    I have an old Window Xp that was bought around 2000-2003,

    I was wondering how many Memory(Ram) It can hold?, this is what it say.

    Maximum Capacity: 1536 MBytes.
    Maximum Memory Module Size: 4093 MBytes
    Memory Slot: 2

    Memory Model: Hynix

    (If I can hold more then 2GB, can I use Kingston Memory Model also? Or only Hynix Model)?

    The reason is I want to upgrade my pc, because i'm hosting a game soon and i only have 448MB of Ram.

    Thanks

    It is better to dispose this system and buy a new one with a better configuration.

    depends to what kind of game though. if it can hold 2gb of RAM then there won't be a problem.
    xp is by far the best but is prone to viruses and thats the problem with xp. and if you install antivirus, its performance will start to slow

    How do you guys know that the OP wants it for? They might only need a little memory, doesn't necessarily mean they want it for gaming, etc.

    Try Crucial.com. They have a scanner that scans how much maximum RAM you can get and the model of your RAM. You can also order from them.
