[dyb_14]

Hi guys my computer is in need of a desperate upgrade and i am just wondering what type of ram would i need (currently on 256mb)? its a Compaq Presario 6202AN, it's memory specs say PC2100 DDR RAM so do i need this RAM?

Also is this RAM on ebay compatible for my computer? thanks so much in advanced

EDIT: i just noticed that the ram in the link is ECC (error correction code) which is typically used in servers. i'm not sure your motherboard supports that or not.

ok, after a little research, you're going to want to stick with non-ECC PC2100 DDR RAM. so pretty much the same thing you linked, without ECC.

And 2.5 Volts

Looks like that's everything listed now
