Hi:

 

What is the product number of your notebook?

 

Use this guide to find that information...please do not post the serial number.

 

HP Notebook PCs - How Do I Find My Product Name or Number? | HP® Customer Support

 

Generally speaking, if your dv6500 has an AMD Turion processor, DDR2-6400 memory will run at 800 MHz and the max memory you can install is 2 x 2 GB.

 

If your notebook has an Intel Pentium processor and a GM965 or PM965 chipset, it can also run DDR2-6400 memory but the memory will only run at 667 MHz.

 

Max memory for notebooks with the Intel Pentium processors and a GM965 or PM965 chipset would be 2 x 4 GB of memory.
