Hey there true believers,
My wife and I are likely to inherit a great 1 year old computer from her parents (Compaq Presario). It has a P4 2.8 processor & 512 MB memory. I checked with 4allmemory.com to see how much memory could be added since I prefer to have 1GB or (preferably) more onboard. According to the site, it has a max capacity of 1GB. I would like to bring it to 2 GB, but that isn't possible to do so with the current setup. Would it be possible to simply replace the motherboard to one that would allow more memory? I think its a mini-ATX. Its a sweet computer now, but with how my wife & I use our laptops, we'd need more memory. I'm certain I have the technical knowhow to replace the motherboard, but I'd like some certainty that it can be done. I'd hate to crack the casing and fine out that Compaq uses special rivets to hold the motherboards in place instead of simple screws
