upgrading your pc

Recently I just bought a brand new personal computer. I basically was force too. I do have a laptop but I wasnt use to working with it and prefer a desktop for doing work. My original computer was not too far out of date. I was able to ad up to 4 gb of ram. I had a couple hard drives in it. One was 200 gb which my motherboard only reconized 120 or so. So I go to my local computer shop and buy 2 gigs of ram to install. I brought my motherboard handbook in and let the counter guy look at it. So I buy 2 gigs of ram and simply install it. Well this screwed my computer up. It started beeping then would just shut off. I tried to put the original ram back in. The same problem happened and it would just shut off. I did some reading around and think it could be the powersupply went out or the motherboard could of shorted out. With the price of dimm 2 cheaper then dimms I decided to return my dimm chips and have a pc built. At first I brought it home and none of the programs would work. So after a couple of days they got it right. I was told they replaced the ram and not sure on the other things. The clerk didnt know the detailsl. Im really happy so far with the new machine. It has 4 gigs of ram, amd 2.7 processor. I had amd before and was happy with it. I can add up to 8 gigs of ram with this machine. They do have dim 3 but the counter guy said its really expensive now. Maybe I should add 4 more gigs why its still available and the prices dont rise up.
