Going to need some more info to help.

What kinda motherboard do you have? Or if you have one a pre-built one the name and model number. Need that info before we can tell you what will work in your PC.

According to this you can take one gig sticks so here are some links for low cost 1 gig sticks for your puter

Hope all that helps

this is the cheapest pc3200 i've seen lately

it's "high density" so you need to make sure it's compatible with your board

$23 shipped for 1gig chip

update: just saw ho's link, that's probably a safer bet since it's a kit plus it's from newegg
