Do you mean where the ram(s) located or where you can buy the ram?

By the way, I just checked the spec at http://www.pcworld.com/reviews/product/245...ario_m2000.html.

Your model uses a DDR333 So-DIMM ram. You can get a DDR400 SO-DIMM ram for your laptop but not DDR2 ram. You can check it out at garage sales. I expect the price of such rams to be around RM100. DDR1 rams are obsolete now especially the SO-DIMM type.

Why not you try to open up the cover at the back which hides the ram slots? You will know how many are there then. You can actually do it yourself. Visiting the garage sales forum, you will see a few threads selling the DDR400 rams. It is very easy.

If you don't have confidence in doing it yourself, you can ask the computer shop to do it for you if you buy from them. Make sure you do a research on the pricing before taking the plunge.

Dear all,
Would like to get some comment from you all.
Anybody heard of Zeppelin RAM (1G)? Is it reliable? (I never heard of Zeppeline RAM before)
It was come with my Compaq laptop. I thought Compaq Laptop is come with Kingston RAM (or Hynix or Samsung or other brand name).
And it is Compaq laptop come with Zeppelin RAM as standard? I did asked this question before (House of Notebook or HP Dealers), they told me, it will be come with Kingston RAM as standard?

Am I been cheated? Bought the laptop last year (in Sept/08)

Need help here.. sad.gif

I haven't heard of this brand before but I think it should work fine. If you're feeling uncomfortable, you can ask your seller to change the ram for you.

I think here's the place for me to ask.

I was using 4x 512MB DDR2-800 RAMs. One of it died and I have to disable off my overclocking. It's probably not easy to find a 512MB MicronD9 (I didn't follow RAM news anymore) but what are my cost-effective options to get back my 1.0Ghz OC? Get a pair of high performance Corsair?

helo guys.

got some problems with my ram. recently, i have upgrade my ram to G.SKILL F2-8500 1066 DDR2 (2GB x 2). my mobo can support to 1066 ddr2 ram. but, when i check the cpu-z, it shows that my ram run @ 800MHz only. then, i set it manually to 1066MHz, but it does not stable. my pc keep restarting when i playing games.

i have to set it back to 800MHz and then everything is ok. is my ram is not compatible with my mobo? plus, what is the ganged @ unganged mode? which mode should i use?

QUOTE
Its possible your processor have stability issues when running 1066MHz RAM sticks (by right on Phenoms that should only occur when using 4 sticks). hmm.gif


the quote above is from lex, in recommendation thread. i still dont know whats wrong. do i have to update bios or something?

You don't have to format your notebook to fully utilise the new ram. Just make sure you insert it when the power is off. It's unlike using the USB port. laugh.gif

You can go to the HP website and check the specification of the notebook. Then you will know what's the ram it used. The easy way is to download a software called "CPU-Z". It lets you knows what're inside your notebook.

It can be upgraded to 4GB. However, if you use 32bit Operating System (X86), your OS can only fully utilise 3GB of the total rams.

I don't think yours support DDR2-800MHz. You can certainly put it in. However, since your other rams are DDR2-667MHz as well, it will only run at 667MHz. Your motherboard doesn't support DDR2-800. Well.. you can use cpu-z to check if it can. I just give my opinion based on my speculation. Haha..

Well, you can install Ultimate but the "aero" will drag your performance since your graphic card is the bottleneck.

Look at the motherboard model then google it for the specification. I think Home Premium is more than enough for normal user but it's up to you which version that you want. If I'm not mistaken, your laptop can use DDR2-800 but not support the speed which means that the speed of the ram will be running at a slower rate than stock.
