Hi, I suggest you go into the BIOS Press/Tap F2 and turn Disable BOOT BOOSTER. Press F10 to save the setting and exit. Remove the Battery after turning off the BOOT BOOSTER. Make certain the RAM is Seated in the slot evenly both sides of the RAM should be the same depth in the slot. Look at the key slot and make certain it is seated in the slot. 1 GB stick is all it will take as there is 1GB on the motherboard. The RAM should be a DDR2 SO Dimm speed 5300. I also suggest windows anytime upgrade to at least Home Premium.

You can use 8Gb modules, there's only 2 DIMMS. I'm using Corsair DDR 3 16GB kit of 2 8Gb 1600Mhz

No unfortunately I tried to install the ram on a similar model and it did not fit in the ram space so I recommend that you just find a different kind its not worth the trouble

It should you just need to make sure that you motherboard can utilize 8 GB or RAM.

I would suggest you get a later version that would allow for more ram to be added. This machine is slow. Could be a headache for tasks that require heavy files or working with programs that require speed. I use this for documents and internet surfing.

See what type of RAM stick your computer has and match it to that. That is what I did when I upgraded to 2GB, also find out what is the maximum ram your computer can handle and upgrade it to that. Hope this helps you.

Yes, I am using Windows 7. 6GB ram is more than enough, in fact I think as little as 2GB will work but, of course, the more the better!

It's OK. But my recommendation will be upgrading the ram memory. If you add more RAM will be fine

If memory serves me, no pun intended. If you have four slots they all have to be the same speed otherwise it will perform at the lowest speed, I have put 3 GB in 3 slots and 256mb in the fourth and had no issue. You will also want to see the maximum gigs your motherboard will support, if your motherboard only supports 4 gigs and not 8 gigs then adding it to what you already have would be pointless.

Yes you can install two of these however if it is a 32 bit system it will only show it using 3.75 GB of the ram. If 64 bit system show using all 4 GB

yes, a ram upgrade is feasible up to 8 gb. You can add another 2gb stick for about $20. Here's a good upgrade: Crucial 2GB Single DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) CL11 SODIMM 204-Pin 1.35V/1.5V Notebook Memory Module CT25664BF160B

It supports the DDR3 Ram at 1333mhz, so it will not run this at full potential but it will run. The comp supports 16 gig, so it should have 4 slots, chances are you can keep the memory you have and add this, just make sure the memory pairs are slot 1 & 3 and slot 2 & 4. You'll also need to be running a 64 bit OS or it will only see 3 gigs of ram.

Yes, you can upgrade the RAM to 16GB. You may contact us after you place the order to discuss the options.

I like others do not need to have more ram. Have you talked to th Genius guys? They have lots of answers. Conrad Lembers

I would have to look but i think you can upgrade to 32 gigs of ram, i believe there is three more open bays.

Dear customer,1. The amount of installing RAM have to be min. 4 GB if the OS is Windows 7 or 8. Better is 6 or 8 GB RAM, but it depend from the Mother Board.2. If the PC is old there is dust inside. You have to clean the contact points before adding the new RAM. Practically, the handy way is to plug in and remove several times the RAM in the socket places. I hope then the PC will start normaly! Success!

Personally, for what I got this for, 4GB is way more than enough (it's not a gaming PC, though it can handle games on low-to-medium graphic settings). Apparently though, the RAM is soldered onboard. So while I'm not sure whether the motherboard can handle upgrades, it's probably quite a job if it's possible.
