I might not do it until weekend. It looked complicated.
What looked complicated?

I will need to try to double check that before any ordering
Once we get it going we will match the current ram.
I always thought you could sort of never have too much RAM? or that over abundance helps for less bottle necking
NO
Ram is limited by what the CPU can handle.
Big mistake people make is buying too much ram or ram that is too fast.

One Mac I had ran with 20GB or ram I removed it all and put it into another Mac - No boot.
Took it back to (I think) 16GB Boots with no problem

I get intimidated by computers. I couldn't get it into bios and stuff before I found this forum and since you have been helping. But I will try to do the prompts on link you sent in the next couple days
 
yes, that is what I want to do. It's just not something I can plug in quick to check. I don't mean to drag this out. Just heavy computer and no space so every time I try something new I have to lift it to temporary space and try stuff then stow it back away. I am not trying to be a pain, I am steadfastly pushing forward. You guys would have had this all squared away in 15 minutes!!
