Upgrading RAM--NEED HELP

Dec 24, 2004 9:02AM PST

I need to upgrade my RAM from 512 to 1GB but the only problem is that I do not know what type of RAM my computer takes. I have Compaq Persario 6000Z 2600 Athlon Porcessor 512 MB RAM Win Xp Pro.

....(the Crucial.com site will show you these sames things) Compaq.com shows this:

Compaq Presario 6000z Product Specifications

If your computer came with 512 mb, then according to the link above, there are two slots for RAM, you'rs already has one slot full and you should get one more stick of 512 MB DDR PC2100 to get to 1 GB.

Hope this helps.
