What are the current system specifications and what is the maximum amount of RAM that will fit into your mainboard?

........as well sayingthat i am low on memory i have tried deleting some of the films i have stored on my computer but it does nothing to help with either problem...........

Here's one of your problems, you're trying to delete files from your hard drive to free up RAM. That's not going to do anything except free up space on your hard drive.

RAM (Random Access Memory) is a volitile storage device. Meaning data doesn't stay in it when you turn your computer off. If you want to free up more memory, open up Task Manager (taskman.exe) and kill off some processes that you don't need.

Aside from that, go buy some more RAM! 128 MB costs around $30 these days.
