encrease ram

[maxmenna]

Goodmorning everyone,
I have a HP PAVILION DV5-1101el notebook that is a bit old but still working.
I replaced HDD SATA 160GB with SSD 240GB and it has improved considerably.
I'm not an expert and I wanted to ask you if I could increase the ram from 4GB to 8GB.
I have not found the specifications anywhere and if you can do this.
The characteristics of my notebook are the following:
Intel Core 2 Duo processor T3200 - 2.0GHz (Penryn, 1066MHz front side bus, 2MB total Level-2 cache, FCBGA6 socket)
RoHS: COMPLY_2.03
System board (motherboard) - Contains the NVIDIA chipset, full-featured +, and DDR2 800MHz memory supported
RoHS: COMPLY_2.03
Thanks and I hope to be lucky
Massimiliano

Unfortunately, the Maintenence & service guide says that 4 GB is the maximum supported.  (2 x 2048 MB modules)

Thanks Erico for the reply.

if I replace the processor with a newer one, could I increase the ram?

if so, what kind would you recommend me?

No the socket locks you in to older Core 2 Duo CPUs which are going to max at 4 gigs. And in any event it would be DDR2 memory and while 4 gig modules are made and you can find them to buy, they cost an arm and a leg.
