Jeffs Reviews

I review computer hardware and software, consumer electronics, kitchen gadgets and tools. Almost all I know about computers comes from hands on learning on the internet on my own, no classes or college in computers. I have built a few computers on my own and do all the work for all the reviews I write, contacting the companies myself and asking for things I am interested in purchasing myself. I work hard to bring you my opinions of the things I review and hope you enjoy my writing.

Memory Upgrade

Is your computer slow starting up, loading web browser pages on Internet Explorer or loading programs? You may need memory that is an easy installation and fix for a slower computer. You need to know a few things before upgrading and the most important part of this is to make sure if you can install more memory and then to get the right kind. Your bios will tell you what type of memory you have and how much. When you press the power button on your computer enter the Bios of your system before Windows boots. Different computers use a different key to start into the Bios, F1, F2, F10 or another combination may be used. Check with your computer manufacturer to make sure of the exact key along with the type of memory your computer needs. The Bios will also list this type but you should make sure you get the right type. You will need to open your computer and possibly remove one stick to replace it with another but this is very easy to do. Sometimes you may need to move components inside such as sliding the rack holding the drives but this is also easy. Do not let the insides of your computer scare you into not upgrading it or making changes to things. Researching this you will find plenty of easy to follow guide to help you, but you can upgrade your own computer instead of paying someone else to do it. Just make sure you fully understand what you are doing and unplug the computer before you start.
