If you have the model number of the PC you can bung it into http://www.crucial.com/uk and it'll tell you exactly what memory it is. You can then either buy it new from Crucial, or maybe scour eBay (should be fairly cheap these days). Alternatively, if you get the service tag of the PC (i.e. the serial number) and put that in Dell's support web site it should also tell you what memory it is. Running Memtest off a Linux distro CD may also tell you what memory it is too. Rob
Doh I got my numbers mixed up, 184 pin is DDR but only has the one notch. So I'd go with what Simon suggests. Haven't seen RD-RAM (Rambus) memory in donkeys years. IIRC they were used in the early P3 machines. My god that brings back memories of Rambus throwing sue-balls at other memory manufacturers who made DDR memory.
