Can you put any type of memory upgrade in a laptop?
Thanks for any help!
Answers:
Yes its easy and you can do it your self. you want to turn off your computer and turn it over so you are looking at the bottom. there will be a compartment with a screw. remove the screw and take off the pannel. you should see a rectanglar chip looking thing and with a little common sense you should be able to remove it.. the most common type will be DDR2, you need to determin what type your ram in. then you can either buy it off of ebay for cheap, ive done it. or you can spend a lot more money and buy it from a store or compaq.
and YES it matters why type it is and no you CANNOT install anything.
You need a 200 pin SODIMM that matches clock speed and voltage.
The existing memory in the laptop will have specifications of what kind of laptop memory it requires.
You can not put ANY kind of laptop memory into ANY laptop...there are SPECIFIC types and SPEEDS of RAM for laptops (just like desktops).
