You should do this everytime you change a driver on an OEM unless you use the OEM's download utility on their website.

For most people it just seems like a waste of time, but I have found it to solve a lot of problems.

Thats true, but you have to keep in mind that hes s changing out his mobo, OEMs for pre-builds dont like that.

Well first off.. i say if you are running a 32bit OS, Vista is crap, you might as well use XP.

Your RAM problem is because of your OS is only a 32bit, 32's can only read/use up to a total of 3gigs of memory, your extra gig is useless bro. you are better off installing 2 1gb sitck paired with another 2 512's to get 3 gigs to use in dual channel.
