    You can ALWAYS go to www.800memory.com and plug in your laptop type to find the exact type of RAM you need... For any laptop!

    You want PC 133 RAM... With the 4 big chips on each side... Not the one with 8 chips on each side.

    Hope this helps...

    I was sort of puzzled by this 8 chip thing myself. I can't even tell how many chips there are on mine becuase I have some Elpida pc-133 that has the armored can on it, but looking in from the side it looks like it has 16 chips or so.
