And how much is too much, DJGM?
Well, as Mandrake said . . .

That amount is just about enough for a Windows 9x/ME based system. If
you don't have any of the NT based versions of Windows, I'd say if you
have more than 256MB RAM for just running Windows 9x/ME, you can
get a varyingly degraded performance from your system, and in the
most extreme circumstances, system freeze-ups, and BSOD's . . .
If your PC is exclusively running an NT based version of Windows,
(such as NT4, XP or 2000), then you can plonk in upto 4GB of RAM.
(Mind you, no home PC user, will ever really need THAT much RAM!)
