You can have a maximum of 4x2GB DDR2-667/800 RAM in that machine with a 64 bit OS. You can put that much in with a 32 bit machine, but it will only identify 3.74-4GB of that RAM. You will need to upgrade to Windows 10 64 bit to use all 8GB of RAM.  

I don't run HP, I just like helping others!

i7-3770 / MSI Z87-G43 / 16GB PNY DDR3 / Aorus RX580 / Ultra X4 750W / Sandisk U110 250GB SSD and 2x WD Velociraptors 300GB / Antec 1100 V2 / NZXT Respire T40 / Corsair SP120 RGB
