    I would go to www.crucial.com and search for your RAM. Its very easy. It will ask who made your laptop, and which laptop it is. Then it will give you a list of RAM made by crucial which is a very good brand.

    [edit] You'll probably have to type out the link since I'm getting an error when I click on it.

    yeah, as southerngirl said crucial.com is the site to go for buying RAM another think i wanna add on is that make sure that you don't put too much RAM for your laptop, cos different motherbroads have their limit mb for RAM.there is no point to put 2 GB in if your laptop can only support 1GB. :)
