I, like the RAM GUY, do not recommend the use of two sets of TWINX modules to fill all four memory slots on your motherboard, especially if those modules are double-sided like all 1GB modules. You see, when you fill all four slots with double-sided memory, the memory clockspeed will be downclocked to 166MHz (DDR333) by default - and will likely not run stable at 200MHz (DDR400).

 

Furthermore, Windows XP reserves the upper memory registers for the PCI bus if you install 4GB of memory. Thus, you will have much less than 4GB available to Windows XP (32-bit) and its apps.
