Im running vista 64 with 2GB pc6400 xms2 1.9v ram my ? is sould i just buy another 2GB and just run 4x1 or buy 4GB set and have 6GB? I would think be easyer too match volts with a 2 GB set then with a 4GB set? Ether way i need more then 2GB i only have 861 free right now

it's best to go with 2x2GB ram to make 4GB, rather than go straight to 1x4GB.

so i sould just take the 2x1's out and just run the 2x2's? And would i have any problems running like a ddr2 1066 with my little proc?

No, they will downclock if your mobo doesn't natively accept that speed.
