Hi @SCK1,
This computer is only showing the 6MB configuration.
As it has two memory slots, you should be able to upgrade to a max of 8mb. Remove the 2MB memory and replace with 4GB, PC3-10600, shared DDR3-1333MHz SDRAM part number 641369-001.
That part can be ordered from Hp Part Surfer.
HP continually improves and changes product parts. For complete and current information on
supported parts for your computer, go to http://partsurfer.hp.com, select your country or region, and then
follow the on-screen instructions.
Please keep me informed of how things went.
If you require further assistance, let me know and I will gladly do all I can to help you.
Please let me know if this resolves the issue by marking this post as "Accept as Solution".
