upgrade ram Compaq Presario S5100NX

‎02-13-2009 07:24 PM

I own a Compaq Presario S5100NX. It has 512 and I want to update to 1G. When I installed the new memories the computer made an estrange sounds and did not work. I search in the Compaq webpage without success for the possible BIOS that need to be updated. Do you help me and let me know other area that I could find them. Thank you!
