This is what you have:

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-PC3-12800-DDR3-1600MHz-Unbuffered-M471B5173DB0-YK0/dp/B00CV5GWHC

The picture you posted seems to be exactly the same memory so I would buy that. Then you can take it to a technican for installation or we can get you manual and video instructions.

Ok, I am ordering it then. And then taking it to the HP service center. But please provide me the manual and video in case I failed to visit them. And please check the link of my 1st post it was the same RAM but Amazon.in. Do check it again Sir. 

[Huffer]

That first link is the same memory as well. Safe to order. 

Here is the Manual:

Manual

Pages 42-47 show how to. Just a matter of removing the back cover, you do not need to disturb the motherboard so frankly I would not pay someone to do this for me. The warranty is safe as long as you don't break anything. The only slightly hard part is keeping track of the screws but the diagrams show where each screws goes in.

Thank you very much, Sir. I accept your suggestion and considering it solved my issue. Thanks for your help.

Why my hardware reserve 567 MB of 4GB RAM?? Is there anyway to disable it and utilize full 4 GB??

[Huffer]

That is video and there is no way to change it. That is one of the reasons you need 8 gigs of system memory...4 gigs is more like 3 and a half. 

[arkadeep2008]

Yes Sir that is exactly why I am upgrading. When opening Google Chrome RAM usages goes as above as 70%. If its the shared video memory then when I will upgrade to 8 GB it will be 7.45 GB available? 

[Huffer]

Something like that. System reserved for video might actually increase a little when you add system RAM but you will have at least 7 gigs which is twice what you have now and will be very noticeably better.
