I have had a problem with adding memory to my pc. I play 3-d action games like uru, and tiger woods 2004. unit operates fine on 256 meg of memory. when I add additional memory to bring to 512 the games start then drop out and goes back to desktop. How do I fix this problem.

Usually this is related to an incompatibility with DirectX and either your
video or sound device drivers. You can start by downloading and installing
the latest/greatest drivers for your video and sound cards - then go to
start, run and enter "dxdiag" (without the quotes) and run the tests found
on the "display" and "sound" tabs. If your problems still exists, you may
need to try updating you "joystick/controller" drivers, and lastly, you may
need to upgrade DirectX to v9.0b, as the game you are playing may require a
newer version, as WinXP shipped with v8.0
