I have an Intel Atom powered Dot Se3 netbook running Windows 10 with 2gb ram installed and its all good I was wondering if anyone else here has this machine or similar?

    If you're wondering if the BIOS will see a 4GB module---maybe. Will it make all good even better---likely not. More bang for the pound by switching to an SSD if currently equipped with an HDD. Jack E/NJ

    Has anybody here had any success using 4gb ram?  I did try an ssd in it a while back there was no real difference with performance the Atom processor is the bottleneck. I also tried 4gb ram it wouldn't even boot into bios. It runs Windows 10 surprisingly well given the mediocre specs plus its immune to the recent spectre/meltdown vulnerabilities.
