A friend has some extra memory and I need some badly but I dont know anything about it except for where it goes in the CPU. I told him to hang on to it till I find out about compatability.

type in " memory upgrades " under google.
once you do, there are several sites that you could look into, and most of the sites will have an automatic memory check up, which will tell you exactly what your mainboard is and what exact type of memory will fit into the motherboard.
trust me on this. just do what i tell you, and youd be like WOAH simple as that? thanks!.

Memory or more commonly referred to as RAM (Random Access Memory) - slots into your Mother Board. The CPU also fits into the Mother board. (Mother board is also referred to as Main Board.)
RAM types that are common are DDR, DDR2 and older types like SDRAM.
Your mother board has a brand and a number. A small manual comes with it, when you purchase an M/Board.
This manual will tell you what RAM your computer will take.

Check motherboard RAM compatibility, if possible read manual or go online. RAM has 2 types, SDRAM (has 2 gutlock) & DDRAM (1 gutlock)

Memory suppliers have selection guides on the website.
You can specify the brand, the model #, how much RAM your computer has, and they will tell you what to buy to upgrade.
One example is Crucial.com . Another is Kingston.

Depends if you have other RAM installed also, but if you have it alone, it should work fine. Some have different speeds, if it fits, it should work.
