Hi John,

Sometimes I wonder whether I have any bad memory, or whether and upgrade installed OK.

It should be in the BIOS but you could also lose some memory well after boot up. I usually check it by:
Start/Settings/Control Panel/System

Under Computer you will see a summary of Processor and Memory amount. If it reports anything different than what you expect try swapping slots. Also, PCs don't like mixing PC133 and PC100 memory modules. If that is the problem you can verify by testing with just one module or the other (I am presuming your PC is a PC133 unit).

Good luck.
