    guys, i want to ask whether my Aspire 1802WSMi can use the 2x512MB DDR2 533 PC4200 SODIMM memory. can i do it? does 915 chipset support DDR2? because my original Memory use 2x256MB DDR 333 PC 2700, and u know that DDR SODIMM is very expensive, that's why i want to use DDR2 SODIMM. sory for my bad english...wait for your suggestion. thank you.

    The actual chipset can support DDR2, but your notebook cannot accept DDR2 modules, because the number of pins is different. DDR2 SODIMM modules have 200 pins, which means the RAM won't fit in the slots on the notebook.
