do i need to upgrade?

Question

having just bought a Sanyo Xacti CG10 camcorder, i'm having problems downloading to my PC. i've only got 256MB DDR...do I need to upgrade my PC?

Answer 1

Maybe so, maybe not. How much room do you have left on your hard drive? That could very well be a factor in this. Maybe you simply need an external hard drive to download your photos/videos to?



Did this camera come with software? If so, have you installed it? I found a website that mentions "iPhoto".

Look at www.crucial.com. They will safely scan your PC and tell you what you've got and recommend upgrades. Then buy from a cheaper source such as Novatech.

Answer 3

no you need to upgrade your RAM to at least 1gb , but the more the merrier



edit if you dont know what RAM is compatible goto crucial.com they have a scanner and it will tell you what RAM and how much your system is capable of holding .....just enter your make and model

Answer 4

256mb is pretty poor, you can't do nottin with that. yeah you'd have to upgrade.
