By upgrading my RAM what improvements will I see in my laptops performance?

[edgetechcorp]

@mundayfilms You should see an increase in overall speed of the computer by increasing the amount of RAM. Boot time should improve as well as the time it takes to launch programs and the speed at which they perform their functions.

Three questions: Does this same method apply to the Compaq Presario F500? Will I be able to get a new memory module for say and model of Compaq Presario and it work? Will this increase my RAM Memory or my Hard-drive Memory? Help would be greatly appriciated.

@TheLunarWolf649 The method should work the same. Go to Edge's memory configurator to find the correct memory for your system. This will increase your RAM memory, not your hard drive (ROM) memory.

I get a BSOD error saying memory management, I'm guessing it's RAM related...

I just want to take the sticks out and put them back in, maybe that'll fix it.

I have a HP laptop, will this method work?

@edgetechcorp I like to play the game called Minecraft. If you have ever heard of it you should know that a lot of people that play it have fps problems. Will increase your ram help with this? Or is it more of a graphics card thing? And will I be able to upgrade my graphics card on a asus A53E?

@Yippykaiyay The chances are your computer uses the 32bit(i386) architecture, which can not handle as much RAM as the 64bit version.

[WTFkidsGAMEPLAY]

@Yippykaiyay do you have 32 bit

What replacement for anti-static wrist strap? I can't understand what's in the video on how to discharge yourself. Based on my understanding (is this right?) on that video is to hold any metal parts near your computer . How long? And also what did you said in 0:13 to 0:20? By the way I understand on how to install it.
