I was unable to answer it. Has anyone increased the size of their memory, if so could they give some advice, the machine is a (LASER 286 PC) current which has 640k which about 540k is usable and he has problems already. There are SIMM and DIP sockets, 256k or 1M SIMMs can be used, which is the best? Thanks in advance I'll forward any mail I get to him. Phill. Steele.
