Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
No longer do I have to worry about getting the dreaded blue screen due to lack of physical memory - I was told about crucial by word of mouth. I used their online analysis tool and I was allocated the correct 2GB memory for under £20.00! I was amazed!
Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
it should be stated on here that if yer running 32bit windows xp or vista it will only recognise 4gb minus your video card memory.
ive gone up to 8 gb ready for new window os or a 64 bit version im gonna install.

Easy to fit, [...] good instructions and a massive boost. I fitted 4 gig extra to a 1 gig machine and it now flys!! Well recommended!
Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
I don't normally do reviews so that fact that I have taken the time to do this is an indication of how happy I was with the purchase of these memory modules.
My view is that there are 2 main ways to increase the speed of your PC, increase processor speed or increase memory. Increasing memory is one of the easiest upgrades to perform and it is made easier with the Crucial memory picker application - I knew I had ordered the correct memory.
These chips were for a Dell Dimension 5150 and they just slotted in increasing the previous memory from 1 mbyte to 4 mbyte.
The Pc is used for programming and database design and the extra speed means extra productivity! The 1Mbyte it replaced doubled another machines memory making it more usable also.
Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
We took the advice of the crucial scan, which advised that to optimise performance, we should purchase 4 gb ram. as it transpires, windows xp 32-bit(what most of us use) can only utilise 3.2gb ram, which on top of the 1gb of ram we already had, renders virtually 2 gb of the ram we purchased ineffective. if you run windows xp 32 bit (the common one) you gain nothing by exceeding the 3.2gb of ram it can utilise. Beware.

very reliable
Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
Easy to install. I had been anxious about this. Took all of 30 mins and most of that was to read and re-read the instructions.
My expectations were perhaps too high and the speed was better but not as fast as i has expected. However for the price it is worth it.
Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
Dell dimension 5150 needed a lift after installing Windows Vista. The Crucial Memory Advisor was bang on, I just ordered one of the recommended options (+4gb RAM) [...]followed the simple installation instructions and it all works beautifully now. Thanks.

Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
Have now used Crucial several times. Their program suggests what you need, you accept their recommendation, pay, [...]. Instructions are clear, and the process works first time, every time. Takes away the nightmare of deciding how to upgrade memory, with the real potential of spending money on the wrong type of memory. Great company!
Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
Bought two of these modules for my desktop, as soon as the machine booted up it started a self defrag and now have 0% fragmentation. In 20 years using MAC's and PC's this is the first time ever I have seen such a result as this. If this is what it can do to a fairly heavily used machine that continually creates and erases files in a workplace then I would buy it for every machine I have.

Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 5150 System:
All I knew about RAM is that I needed more. Where should I start? I downloaded and ran the Crucial System Scanner Tool which gave me several options and I plumped for the one that suited my needs best.
The enclosed instructions were easy to follow and gave me the confidence to do the job myself (bear in mind that I've never seen the inside of a PC before, never mind upgrade any of the components).
Took me five minutes and once done, checked the System and there it was.
