    Hello people!

    An ad at the top of this page i clicked on, allowed me to download something called crucial scanner which would pick the right RAM upgrade for me. I wasnt sure whether it would work or not and i have my suspicions whatever computer you have it will just forward you to the sites that are paying it money LOL. These are what it told me:

    http://www.crucial.com/uk/systemscanner/viewscanbyid.aspx?id=1F96536F31D926C3&tabid=&pagename=

    I have a toshiba equim M70, intel centrino, runs alright, i like it. Someone from aD told me it would be quite competitive if it had a better graphics card, but for now im not worrying about that.
    Now please excuse me because i dont know much about RAM, and i cant actually find any information about it through system information or anything. Am i right in thinking is is SDddr? I dno...heres what i did find about it:

    open up the ram case at the bottom of the laptop and there should be a free slot. now there is a program called cpu-z, that will tell you what type of ram you currently have, so you can buy another stick of the same one.
