Going to look into the stick thing..I have a couple I'm not using....




Most computers that shipped with XP also shipped with DDR ram in them.

DDR is Double Density Ram and yields two ram cycles for every clock cycle.

Thus your 512mb of DDR is likely funtcioning as 1gb of single density ram would.

RAM sticks must be installed in MATCHED PAIRS in the right sockets of the motherboard in order for your BIOS to identify and run them in DDR mode, otherwise, it will automatically revert to Single Density mode -- And you could easily be taking a hit as to how much memory power you really have available.

2 - 256mb DDR sticks make 512mb

2 - 512mb sticks makes 1gb

or

2 - 1gb sticks = 2gb

However, adding say, one more 265mb stick to the first example would mean that you would force your motherboard to run the three sticks as Single Density and thus 768mb of RAM, which would function WORSE than the original two 256mb sticks yielding 512mb of DDR Double Density Ram, or the equivalent of 1gb of Single Density Ram.

Don't bother. They are not ram.

Of course, DDR also stands for 'Deutsche Demokratische Republik' (former East Germany), which no longer exists. Perhaps, in time, DDR RAM will go the way of East Germany...

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
