According to the HP specs, your laptop uses PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2 RAM. You probably have a 1GB stick and a 500MB stick right now. To have 2GB, you need to replace the 512 with another 1GB stick -- but Windows 10 really needs 4GB to run reasonably well. So, your better option is to use 1 2GB RAM sticks.
