Ok, thanks for the link to Hp's Site. I talked online to a techinician explaining my problem. I gave them the neccessary information, and they came back with this...

2 DDR-DIMM Slots
Only supports PC2700 Modules
Maximum Each Module 512MB
Maximum RAM i can have is 1024MB


So i think i can have two 512MB PC2700's installed and everything should be ok. One last thing i need to know is, what type of RAM do i need? Thats something that i forgot to ask. :P The one i have installed currently is DDR SDRAM. That should be fine shouldnt it? Thanks for all your help.

I was thinking maybe these two here. It's within my price range, and a decent brand.

Use what's there. your mobo must support it. That much of a jump in RAM should give you a much quicker machine. So many every-day tasks are done in RAM--
Whenever switching programs,for example. The more RAM you have the easier your computer can utilize it to temporarily store data (up to a point).

I'm not saying you'll have a raging speed demon here... but the difference should be noticable.

Please post back and let us know how you make out
