    My laptop is Vista Home edition, the orignial memory is 2 Gb, after I upgade
    it to 3 Gb, when my laptop go to sleep and recover from the restoration data
    it will die and never recover ,after I remove 1 Gb Memory and start and
    delete restoration data and go to boot menu it will start and add 1 GB memory
    again, it can run in the 3 GB memory .

    If I shut down and start it will have no problem

    But How can I use 3GB memory and can use the restoration data or delete
    restoration data in some way and no need for me to physically remove the
    memory/

    Thanks.

    try the 1 GB stick closeest to the MB
    and the 2 GB stick outside the first...

    see if that helps... if not try it the otherway around...

    on my model 3gb only works with the 2 gb stick in the outside slot

    What is your reason? If my pc can not recover ,how can I delete the restoration data without taking out the memory?

    Thanks.

    When you say recover from restoration data, do you mean come out of hibernation mode? If you want to delete the hibernation file you can run windows disk cleanup tool and remove it from there. To reenable it so it changes the hibernate file from 2 gb to 3 gb, press windows+r, open "cmd" without quotes, and type "powercfg /hibernate on" without the quotes. I think thats how i did it when I had a similar problem if you are talking about what I think you are.
