Hi:

Use the crucial memory website.

They guarantee compatibility.

My motherboard does not be in the Crucial site compatible SDRAM Search.

What is a standard voltage of the HP 81F1 motherboard for its SDRAM,is that dual 1.35v/1.5v or other?Is it different for different models of motherboards having in their designation the HP 81F1?

You don't need to know the motherboard model to do the search.

Select the manufacturer from the drop down list (HP-Compaq)

Then type in 250 G5 for the model and then several 250 G5 configurations will appear.

You select the one that matches the processor it has, and then a list of memory options will show up.

I'm not sure that the selected with the Crucial site Search SDRAM will be enough compatible cause the motherboard does not be in the Crucial Search on the page www.crucial.com .
What about the voltage and the motherboard bus frequency FSB of the motherboard?Is there some web-link with all characteristics of the motherboard?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

The motherboard model doesn't mean anything to me.

If you let me know what model processor you notebook has, I will give you the link to the compatible memory, and how much you can install.

I will not change my SDRAM now.What are only the motherboard characteristics?
