some people deem 1GB of RAM alittle underpowered for Vista so it might be worth an upgrade, should be possible as long as you find out which kind you need. nows a good time too, as its relatively cheap

as I told you when you asked a week or so ago...check the RAM it is meant to have is installed properly. Then check if it has one 1GB stick (so a free memory slot) or two 512mb sticks.
If its two 512mb sticks then you'll have to buy two 1GB sticks to get a decent upgrade. If it has a spare slot then can get another 1GB stick.

I would imagine you can upgrade it TBH. If its a case of just another 1GB stick, or two 1GB ones is the difference though.

Right, looking online it appears it has 2x512MB sticks.
You will need to buy 2x 1GB sticks such as these here
