I now have 3Gb installed and my system reports having only 2.8Gb, therefore hopefully I can gain at least an additional .5Gb, by adding a fourth 1Gb. Dimm.
At only £15.00 ($30.00) per 1Gb, it's got to be worth a try.

it could ne that your video or graphics card uses 0.2 gb as shared memory.. for a faster system use a graphics card that has at least 512 mb ram of it's own
