    I found this on the Transcend website for the C90S. They claim 100% tested, 100% compatible. I ordered 1x2MB + 1x1MB Revised 1x2GB + 1x1GB (I am such an idiot... :) )

    Thanks to all who have answered my questions in setting up my laptop.

    3MB total ram! I hope you don't plan on trying to boot your computer : ) just messing with you. I think you mean "GB" not "MB".

    Anyway, let us know if it works!

    That's not really true, C90 is very picky about RAM and will bluescreen a lot if it doesn't like it. :)
