What memory did you buy and install? maybe it is slower memory

When you add slower memory,all other memory will run at that slower speed.

You can install it, but it won't see more than about 3Gb.

In order to use more than 3Gb, you need a 64 bit CPU, & a 64 bit OS.

Otherwise, do basic maintenance on ur computer. Check for viruses, clean  
ur registry, defrag ur drive. Make sure there aren't any unwanted start-up  
programs running in the background. An unscrupulous repairman might install  
a backdoor program to steal files & passwords.

32 bit systems can only accept around 3gb of ram, any more might not be
