Agree with JC. More memory is the single best thing you can do to your computer to use Vue, or any computer graphics program for that matter. And, for standard computers, it is relatively inexpensive, compared to every other piece of hardware. If you can, you might want to look at your motherboard manual to determine how much RAM your computer can support, and in what configurations. (That is, can you have two sticks of 512, and one stick of 1 GB, or are there only two RAM slots, and you must put in either two one gigabyte sticks or two 512 KB sticks?) If you can determine exactly what kind of RAM you have (from reading your motherboard manual, or by opening your case and removing a stick to look at it), you'll find that you can order it online for significantly less money that you'll pay in your local retail store. (Unless you live close to a Fry's Store.) If you live in the USA, www.newegg.com is a good inexpensive source with very reliable and prompt shipping.
