Hi,
My gf's laptop needs more memory. I don't know alot about computers but I'm trying to help her out. It a sony vaio, approx. two years old. I'd like to suprise her by upgrading the memory.
I downloaded cpu-z, so i have the system info. I don't know how much info is needed so I'll just list most of it i suppose. Its a pentium T2050 processer (yonah), socket 479. Under memory tab it states 1024Mbytes, dual channel DDR2, DRAM FREQUENCY 266.0Mhz. Under the "SPD" tab, Slot 1 it says DDR2 512 Mbytes, correction: none, PC2-5300 (333mhz), hyundai electronics, part number HYMP564S64CP6-Y5. Under slot 2 it says the same thing. Also says 1.8 V at bottom of window.
I would like to have a total of two gigs in this machine, which should be a big improvement over one gig. What memory should I get? And how do I find out how many slots there are in this laptop? Cause it looks like its got two 512mb memory things in it, according to cpu-z. Its a vaio and it says "VGN-N220E" in the right corner just below the screen.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Edit: After looking up this laptop's specifications online, it says it uses "PC2 4200" memory, with a 2 gig max. But cpu-z says it running PC2-5300. So im even more confused now lol.
