Upgrading my 2510P to 4GB Ram Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Hi all, I decided to upgrade my 2510P to 4GB of ram. As you know/or may not know, the 2510P only has 1 SODIMM slot, so a 4GB SODIMM must be used. However, it has a GM965 chipset that doesn't seem to support 4GB Modules. After doing some research, I decided to take the risk so I ordered a 4GB GSkill Module from memoryc.com for 113 Euros (Inc 10 Euros for shipping to Singapore). My 2510P is speced as follows: U7700 1.33GHz C2D 2GB DDR2 RAM 120GB 5400rpm 1.8" HDD (Samsung) The Module As I chose registered post, I only received this module this morning after placing the order on 25 Sept. Home Forums Notebook Manufacturers HP & Compaq You may have noticed things look a little different around here we've switched to a new platform (XenForo) and have some new forum styles and features. This howto guide will help you find your way around. If you find anything that looks strange, post it in this thread.
