I'm gonna upgrade my RAM tomorrow and just wanna know if this RAM is compatible with the system i have now. I contacted hp and they said RAM (standard) 512/2100 DDR (2x256) is what i have. So could i buy this RAM? here is link.

it should work, if not you can have someone like a local comuter geek do it for your. Now i got my PC custom built from a guy who fixes and upgrades computers. I paied $1200 for the eqivlent of a $2000 dell or HP. Then i got free tech support for as long as he is working with computers. Even though i could have built my own PC for 1200 and get it faster it was easy and ready to run.

I have a quick question. I have PC2100 RAM and at CompUSA this is what they have

512MB PC2100 184pin DDR DIMM Memory Module

And my computer currently has PC2100 DDR SDRAM . But i don't know what the pin thing means, can i still get that or no?

Build one. Nothing better than building..Unless you have money to throw away you could get an Alienware
