HEY GUYS CAN HELP ME OUT I WANT CHANGE MY RAM

MY RAM IS DDR 2GB NOW AND IWANT UPGRADE TO 4GB CAN TELL IT POSSIBLE OR HOW CAN I FIND IT OUT

[Huffer]

Max is 8 gigs of DDR2-800 also known as PC2-6400. 4 gig modules of that memory are very expensive, but 2 gig modules are not so bad.

Memory replacement starts at about 1:40 into the video. You have 2 memory slots and the first thing you need to see is if you have 2 x 1 gb modules or 1 x 2. This will dictate how you get to 4; i.e. whether you need 2 x 2 gigs or just one module.

[Huffer]

Probably but it is slower memory. You want DDR2-800. 800 is the speed. That stuff is 667 speed memory, not 800

It should work but you are the second person in the last couple weeks who said he was having problems with Simmtronics memory; a brand I had not heard of. But the specs of the memory are right...DDR2-800 and the laptop should be able to handle 1 or 2 4 gig modules.
