In the bios you have enabled the os install mode which limits the memory to 256mb. This is because some O/S's don't like more than 256mb.

A minimum of 256 MB of system memory. To add additional system memory, install identical pairs of DDR SDRAM DIMMs in the six DIMM sockets on the system board,max 6Gigs.If you install more tha 256 and you only see 256 try upbating the bios.
Good luck

What type of nic to add

Cannot be PCIe, as they are not supported - PCI or PCI-X. Check the slots, you may only be able to use 3.3/5V cards.

And as a sidenote ... the PowerEdge 2600 does not support x64 Operating Systems and does not support hardware-assisted virtualization (VT on Intel processors), so you will be limited on which VM solutions you can use.

I want my Laptop Dell Latitude C800 physical memory upgraded to 128 mb to 256 mb I myself already installed 256 mb Ram but it still showing 128 mb of memory...can I get help in this regard ?

I assume you installed another 128Mb of RAM to give you a total of 256Mb.
It is most likely the 2nd RAM module is not compatible with the other RAM module. Try using the same make.
OR
Purchase and install a single RAM module 256Mb or 512Mb these are not expensive.
