brombomb Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Before you say anything about using the configulaotr I already tried. However, my computer manufacturer is not listed, so I couldn't use it. I have an ibuypower laptop. Currently installed in my system is is 1 1024MB (1GB) DDR-400 PC-3200 [Notebook Memory] (SO-DIMM?). Anyway I was searching around and I found this chip: DDR2 1GB PC2-4200 (533MHz) 200 Pin So-Dimm, Corsair VS1GSDS533D2 A friend told me once that new RAM is backwards compatable, which I understand that my computer would not use this RAM's full potential but would the RAM be running at full potential for my system (at DDR 400 PC3200 speeds?) Here is a link to my specific laptop just for further information: http://ibuypower.com/ibp/store/configurator.aspx?mid=158 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Won't work. That laptop takes DDR1 memory, whereas you're asking about DDR2 memory. Physically incompatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
