Q&A: how to check if laptop memory upgrade was successful?

Question by dsid77: how to check if laptop memory upgrade was successful?
My laptop had 1 GB memory RAM and I replaced it with 2GB for faster performance. The system properties still shows 1GB as total memory. I definitely feel the positive effect and my laptop seems to be faster after the upgrade. But why is the system properties still show 1GB? Any pointers?? Do I need to reinstall the memory to ensure both slots are working and that both are powering the laptop?? Thanks.
p.s. i have windows vista.
any pointers

There are two ways I know off.

Go to: piriform.com they have 4 programs for free, each will help you, and one of the four will
show you the details of your ram and will show the 1GB OR 2 GB.

The other is in yahoo gatgets gallary. google it. I have a side bar gatget that constantly gives me
a ram activity on two cores, and the total ram read outs but they have others with more cores.

There’s a way of course with the computer too, but I just don’t bother, because I have this other two
ways of doing it.

What are the white apple laptops called?

Question by : What are the white apple laptops called?
I am a complete newb when it comes to electronics and I was wondering what the difference is between the apple laptops that are white and the ones that are silver. The white ones are like plastic on the outside and the silver ones are like metal. My brother bought a silver one for university. Is there a difference in price between the white and silver…also do they even sell the white ones anymore? I couldn’t find them on the website.

Thanks!!

what pixel size should I use for an image i’m photoshoping to fit a 19 inch widescreen laptop?

Question by j.mustapha: what pixel size should I use for an image i’m photoshoping to fit a 19 inch widescreen laptop?
I’m trying to design a wallpaper on photoshop, but I dont know what size to set the image at in order for it to fit my 19 inch widescreen monitor on my laptop.

Answer by Robert W
Regardless of your monitors’ size, it depends on your screen resolution. Screen resolution is the W,H amount (in pixels) of your monitor. To see your screens’ resolution, follow these steps:

1) Click Start
2) Click Control Panel
3) Double-Click Display
4) Click the “Settings” tab
5) Look in the “Screen Resolution” box, it will have something like “1024 by 768 pixels” or (in my case) “1600 by 1200 pixels” — This is your screens’ resolution (and in which you should create your wallpaper)

However, as a little side note, you should always create wallpapers that are 1600×1200 (or even higher) so it will be more compatible with other users with higher resolutions than what you have, such as me!

Hope this helps :)
