RAM Configuration

I have a Dimension 4100 with 256 MB of Ram. Want to upgrade to 512. Can someone tell me if my 256 MB is 2 128s or a single 256? Thanks. Yeah I am too lazy to open the box and paperwork vanished Doh!

    I have heard that effective use of ram varies with the OS. If you have Win 98, the extra ram may actually cause a decrease in performance; it has a problem with ram past 128m threshold.

    Win98 can effectively handle up to 512MB of RAM.
