You guys helped me out with my BSOD's in FSX and it appears to be bad memory. But I may upgrade the GPU and CPU as well. I was going to get a new system but recent financial issues have put an end to that idea.
First, when I run Belarc Advisor, this is what it shows for memory;
__________________________________________________ _________
4094 Megabytes Usable Installed Memory
Slot 'A0' has 2048 MB
Slot 'A1' is Empty
Slot 'A2' has 2048 MB
Slot 'A3' is Empty
Slot 'A4' has 2048 MB
Slot 'A5' is Empty
__________________________________________________ __________________
Is that telling me one of the memory sticks isn't working since it states 4094 useable, when it has 6040 installed? I will replace all of them, however, can I fill all of the slots and will it help FSX?
Second, this is my MB, GPU, and CPU;

Is there a GPU I can update to with that MB and will it help performance? What about the CPU?
Thanks,
Ken
