Just a side note. Not familiar with you particular mobo but I suspect, since
only a few most recent mobos do, that your mobo will only cache up to 64 Mb.
So actually adding more memory will cause you to take a 10 ~ 15% performance
it. The reason for this is that Win9x loads its system from top down and
therefor will be located in the uncached area of RAM. Since this is the most
used "software", it will actually slow the performance down. The only reason
I would think one would want more than 64 MB on a mobo that does not cache
above that is if you are loading veerrrry large files, e.g. 80Mb graphics
file, which would then be able to load into RAM and not have to access the
hard drive constantly while working on it.

How do you now if it caches more than 64 or what ever. Ask the mobo
manufacturer.
