hrm - i think i'll just stick to the "take old memory out, put new memory in" method... probably less complications there - dont want to be messing around too much with boot.ini's :)

BTW - just for reference... is it just a case of opening it up, sticking new memory in place of the old; booting, and windows recognises the memory or do i need to do something software/OS side of things before i do that?

Thanks for sharing your knowledge guys, it would have taken me aaaages to find all the info to answer these questions.
