Hi,
I son't work for Crucial, I don't work for HP. Do you have Crucial specs ? Please use the following tool to check HP specs. If not same specs the RAM won't work, simple like that.
http://download.cpuid.com/cpu-z/cpu-z_1.77-en.exe
You can also use Crucial check mow, it will definitely come out a different specs. ALL CRUCIAL RAM sticks are NOT the same. One more thing: HP doesn't use Crucial RAM on HP machines till now:
Regards.

Thanks a lot.
