Don't know if I'll be able to get an answer for this due to the age of this computer (mine's going to be old enough to legally purchase alcohol this year!) but I was wondering if anyone could vouch for whether the Dell Dimension 8100 actually supports 2GB of RAM.
If you do a google search for "dell dimension 8100 max memory" you get scores of sites saying the max is 2GB, but if you go on Dell's website and pull up the service manual they have on there it says the max is 1GB. I want to upgrade mine to the max it'll take and I'm hoping it's the 2GB but I don't know if I'd be blowing my money buying 512 RDRAM sticks that I can't even use.
So basically I'm just wondering if anyone remembers actually trying it and knows if it'll work.
