First, you'll need to determine the product and serial number of your laptop. HERE are instructions on how to do that.
Once you have that information, you can go HERE for instructions on how to determine the memory specs for your particular HP laptop.
As for where to purchase memory in your locale (as opposed to online), that will depend upon where you are located. Are you in Taylor, Michigan US?
Hopefully others in your area will have recommendations for you. :smiles:
man that sucks, i was hoping on getting 2 gb of ram on this, but it has 1 gb installed (512 and 512) so the only way for me to get 2gb is to buy 2 1gb sticks............ i dont have the money lol, i wish they would have just put a gig stick in it.
is 512mb of ram gonna make that much of a difference?
btw , I live in taylor michigan (detroit area)
I personally have a few HP Laptops ranging now form a DV600t to the DV9000t series. I have upgraded the dv6000t form 512MB ram to 2GB and it was a huge increase performance wise. I also upgraded my dv8000t and dv9000t to 2GB of ram, and TBH I wouldn't want it any other way. Especially since I just loaded Vista on the dv8000 & 9000
