I shouldn't type when I am sleeping! ;-) Your computer can handle RAM with a designation of 16 or 64 where the 32 X "64" spec is. A number of 16 is for the smaller RAM modules that you have now. A computer must be capable of using a 512 meg module in the mem slots to use High Density RAM. (Greater than 1 gig total in 2 or more slots) They would have a designation of something like 64 X 4 which not many computers can use. Only the last of certian chipsets before DDR ram came out can do so. All others must use Low Density modules, FYI when buying them. Computers that can use High density modules can also use Low Density RAM but not the other way around. Have fun!! :-)
