Urgh, need more RAM

It sounds to me like you've got RIMMs there, Anderwin. If that's the case, you have to fill all of your slots and if you don't have enough sticks, you need to use continuity RIMMs to fill the remaining slots. I'd check your RAM and see if that's what you're running.

Fill that bitch up, all I have to say now.

But where does it stop dead at? Power on? Power on Self Test? Windows boot screen? Welcome Screen? Where?

AAARGHHHHH, enough about RAM.

SRS BZNZ NAO....

My Dual-DVD drivers stopped working. Now I obviously can't play my C&C games... Very annoying.

The information.
Windows Vista, on a Targa Targa Ultra AN64 4800 DC.
The Dual-DVD thing is a writer on top and a reader below...
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-H42L ATA Device
HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8 164B ATA Device

As for people who suggest google... Only an idiot would look for information on Google without being knowledgable on the subject (because you can always hit a troll website/website full of retards).

Parts like that is ment to be swapped out when they break...

Driver... driver...

I need to find the drivers for it, but all I can find is big packs for XP... will that work on Vista too?

Sup guys... -__________-;

He didn't say drivers, he said drives. As in, the actual physical optical drives. They're meant to be changed out when they break, he says. Which is correct and a good thing because optical drives, the non-Blu-Ray ones, anyway, are quite cheap these days.

All four RAM bricks work but the XP will not read it Neutral

I don't think it's XP being unable to read it. It sounds to me like your motherboard can't utilize the sticks since they're the incorrect type or you've mixed and matched and found a bad combo... or your RAM slots have gone tits up.
