Haha, i don't turn sarcastic without reason and trust me there was nothing to be sarcastic about in the first few posts. Rest assured i don't start anything unwarranted.
I doubt that the original thread starter will actually see this message now though, as 5 months is a long time and he's most likely got a new computer or at least upgraded already.
And yes, 3gb is plenty for vista and games these days, though 3gb is not really a standard number so i'm guessing its a 2gb and 1gb stick paired together. Also he might not be using custom hardware and possibly OEM builds like Dell or HP. I've heard that in some occasions adding rams that come from different manufacturers into the additional slots can cause issues but i'm not too sure about that.
It just boils down now to how and whether he managed to solve his issue. If not, it would be good to know if it WAS indeed a Dell machine or what not. Dell desktops can be pretty shoddy as i've used one at my past workplace before that had a board that didn't allow more than 2 USB devices plugged in at one time to start up. I found that rather retarded haha
