According to chapter 1 page 2 of the manual, only DDR2 memory is supported.

 

You would have to remove the 1 GB chip and replace it with a 2 GB DDR2-4200 memory chip or a DDR2-5300 memory chip.

 

The DDR2-5300 memory chip would bridge to 533 MHz, because that is the fastest speed your notebook's processor can run the memory at.

Hi:

 

You can only upgrade to W10 32 bit as the N270 processor is a 32 bit only processor.

 

Intel Atom Processor N270 512K Cache 1.60 GHz 533 MHz FSB Product Specifications

 

If you have not done so already, you can remove the 1 GB memory chip and replace it with a 2 GB memory chip.

 

4 GB of memory is not supported.

 

See chapter 1 of the service manual for the memory upgrade info.

To upgrade to W10 32 bit for free, click on the blue Update Now button at the link below...

 

Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

 

If W10 does not work right on your PC, you can use this method to go back to W7 within 30 days as long as you don't delete any files.
