I'm going to upgrade the memory in my lapdog (Dell inspiron 1300). Just wondering, are the sticks the same (physical) size as the ones in a PC, or do I need to find specific ones? -- FrJ >> Stay informed about: Lapdog Memory

They're generally a different size. Desktop sticks are long and thin ish [1], laptop ram is a bit more square [2]. Many Dell systems use proprietary ram, but have a look here for good information www.crucial.com [1] and [2] Technical Terms. -- Paul - xxx ebay 140105908490 >> Stay informed about: Lapdog Memory

Dunno if this applies to the 1300, but my Inspiron 2650 has 1 x 256 stick and space for another 256 somewhere inside. Trouble is, the one inside is unreachable as far as I can see, and Dell says it's got to go back to them to upgrade it. I've tried, obviously, but I couldn't see any way to get to the inside memory slot without breaking the case into little bits. Another 256 would make a hell of a difference, but by now I CBA and will wait until I need to replace the whole thing. I tried a 512 stick in the "user-accessible" slot, but no joy. -- Rich B Bandit 1200S Take out the obvious to email me. >> Stay informed about: Lapdog Memory

Looking at the manual, it looks pretty much straightforward, both slots user-friendly and will take a 1GB stick in each. I'm prolly going to stick a gig in the spare slot. -- FrJ >> Stay informed about: Lapdog Memory
