2gigs is the max for that laptop.

@Kelsenellenelvian thanks

Hey no problem.

I would get a 2GB SODIMM 667MHz and try it with the 512MB SODIMM; There is a big chance it works!

ya my laptop's website said mine only supports 2 gig but i'm using 4 gig right now

@puntoMX, @wcogy thanks

i would like to try it but i am cheapskate i am afried to loss the 2GB ram which i will buy to try cause i think i have to install 2 X 1GB RIGHT?

in the use guide they mention that my laptop ram is DDR2 533 MHz Memory upgradable to 2GB using 2 soDIMM modules (dual-channel support)

but when i open my laptop and check the ram i found this

512 MB 2RX16 PC2-5300S-656-12-A3 [DDR2-666]

and this what igot from cpuz and PC Wizerd 2008

so what type of ram should i buy? and it have to be 2x1GB ?

Is there no way to take it to the shop so hey could test the 2GB stick for you? Or no return policy?

Just buy PC2 5300 667MHz sticks, it's just your CPU that works at 533MHZ / MT/s FSB.

@puntoMX Thanks for ur great help

there is no way to try it in the shop, i will buy 2 sticks each one 1GB, 2GB is good for me for the rest of this year.
