You can install Win10 with V3000, just you need >2GB RAM for everything to be smoother imo.
You can try find a cheap old 2nd hand SSD with low Total HOST/NAND writes, no need to get cream of the crop SSD because that laptop Sata port only support Sata 2. |

QUOTE(andcorps @ Jan 25 2016, 04:05 PM) Thanks... Usually 4GB max, 2x2GB. Some support 2x2GB but only on a couple of RAM brand like Kingston, Corsair. Some older model with older BIOS only support 2GB max, best to take it to computer shop and test it on the spot.Based on the previous setup (OS 32 bit XP) of the model it supposed to support up to 2GB RAM only. What determine the volume go RAM supported? Is it OS or BIOS? And also what version of the WIN10 should i install on the laptop? Is it 32 bit or 64 bit? Supposedly I replaced the HDD with a SanDisk X300 128GB and replace the 512MB RAM with 2 x 2GB RAM, is it possible? V3000 have 2 RAM slot.  If you can upgrade to 4GB then 64 bit is better. |
