Don,
I am currenly running a D830 with XP 2002 service pack 3, with 2GB Ram running at 789 M (According to the System
profile). The question I have is can I put the 800MHz PC2-6400 chips in my system to upgrade it to 4GHz?
PC2-6400 memory chips will work but most likely your XP will not see all 4GB. XP has some limitations.
For example, I'm running XP SP3 on my desktop and I have 4GB installed, but in system properties I can see only 3.25GB of RAM.

jaume,
I have Dell precision M65 workstation mobile.
I installed 2×2gb ddr2 PC2-6400 (800), but only I can see 3.25GB to 667, but DELL have 800Mhz RAM for M65.
Why this problem whit the memory speed??
According to the specifications, your Dell Precision M65 laptop has 667MHz front side bus. Even if you install faster memory
modules (800MHz in your case), they will run at 667MHz. That's why you see 667MHz in the BIOS.
You see only 3.25GB installed because it's limitations of your 32-bit operating system (XP I guess). In order to take advantage of all
4GB RAM installed, you'll have to run a 64-bit OS.

Heiko,
I have some problem with D830. In slot A theres a 2Gb. I´ll put a another 2Gb (or 1Gb) RAm into the Dimm B. The
system starts fine, the Bios setup recognize the new RAM, but in the WinXp prof there I get some problems. I can´t get
to the controll panel, some licences manager doenst work.
I changed also the DIMM A and put there 2 Gb of the same manufacture like the 1G bin DIMM B – no success. Who
can help me?
