Right now my hp compaq 6300 pro sff has 4 gb of ram but i have 3 more 4gig sticks coming and i was wondering if there was a specific way i should do the upgrade of the ram. Like:

1. Install a stick at a time
2. Reinstall windows after the sticks have been.
installed.
3. Just install the ram and hope the re activation.
goes smooth lol
4. Or what ever you guys suggest
