    Hi ,
    My name is Amar, I work for Social Media and Community Team at Dell,

    With regards to your concern as I understand that you are trying to upgrade the memory on your DELL laptop ,

    • E1705 can support maximum up to 2 Gb of memory
    • You currently have 533Mhz and your system Supports DDR-II up to 667 MHz.

    Thanks & Regards

    @amar. I bought a 17r SE and as you know there is no backlit keyboard with nordic keys (only US/UK + some more) for just 17r SE.

    I read you said vostro 3750 backlit keyboard fits 17r SE.

    Which is the partnumber and how much does the vostro backlit keyboard cost ?

    The 945 chipsets should support memory speeds of up to 533 and 667. However, you will not notice a practical difference between these speeds. You should be able to install up to 4GB of memory, but the BIOS may not be able to address all 4GB, which is common for Dell 945 machines.
