    Hello, can you pls tell me what kind of memory does the nx9420 has? It is a new one with T7400. It already has an 1GB DDR2 667 but i dont know what kind it is. Is it hi dencity or low density? Some others differ on organization?? (i dont know what this is)... Any help would be appreciated. Would this one be compatible? http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-PC5300-5400...hZ017QQcategoryZ80202QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem (only one DIMM)?

    Thank you

    BUY ONLY a memory with these chips... in that order

    Hynix, Samsung, Infineon(Quimonda), Micron, Elpida,.... best if it is the same as the one already inside.

    DO NOT BUY KINGSTON... unless it has these chips on it.... i've had a ton of problems... they gave errors on core 2 duo 2.16 and worked flawlessly on turion x2... tested with memtest86+ 48h

    it seems the core 2 duo is quite sensitive when it comes to memory.

    you can use CPU-Z to see your memory manufacturer...

    AND ALWAYS CHECK THE INTEL COMPATIBILITY LIST
