    You need 200 pin ram first of all (this is notebook ram). Second you'll need 2700 speed ram. Some people think 3200 will work...it wont, the computer doesn't have enough power on the motherboard sent to the ram to be able to run the 3200 speed. Alot of times the notebook won't even clock the 3200 down to 2700, so save yourself a headache and stick with 2700 speed. Also, to get the 2g of ram you'll need to completely take apart your laptop because the second slot is underneath the keyboard.
