Hi,

 

I think the g6-1066 models limited to 4GB.  I can double check that if you post the product number.

And if its maximum 4GB ... no way to upgrade even to 6GB ?

Hi,

 

The specifications for the g6-1066se indicate 4 GB is the maximum.  This post by HP also indicates 4 GB is the maximum.

 

However, this manual show 8 GB is possible.

 

The fact that your laptop has one 4GB module would make me lean towards 8 GB as the maximum. I don't know if HP Support can sort this out but contact them and find out.  You may need to contact a HP Product Specialist.

 

I'll try to have some others look into your situation.
