Re: upgrade processor

Hi, Paulo:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01951704.pdf

 

Supported processors can be found in Chapter 1,  page 1.

 

Your notebook has the Mobile Intel 965 chipset. Theoretically, you can install 2 x 4 GB of PC2-6400 memory for a total of 8 GB.

 

You need to be running a 64 bit operating system for 8 GB of memory to be of any use to you.

 

See this post below regarding the possibility of doing so.
