It (Win7) will only be able to use up to 3 gigs of your 4 as it's a limitation of the 32-bit processor. Newer pc's use 64-bit processors which eliminate that limitation.

Absolutely. Your computer can handle DDR2 ram. Just slap these in and you will double your memory. To be exact it will use 3.25 of the 4 Gigs of memory.

You can have a 8 GB of RAM with a 64 bit system or 4 GB of RAM with the 32 Bit system and run windows 7 Just fine. You must do a new installation so purchase a (32 or 64 Bit) Full version of windows 7.If you right click on "My Computer" and choose the "Properties" you will see what you have, (64 or 32 Bit) Windows 7 will not allow you to upgrade from windows XP.

yes you can upgrade to a maximum of 4Gb. Ensure you look at the installed memory which should be either ddr2-pc2-5300 or ddr2 pc2-6400. match the ordering of additional ram to what you have installed. Good Luck

Yes.But depends on how many RAM slots you have to upgrade.I have four and have maxed out with 32 GB(8GBx4)

Shouldn't be a problem, just purchase another 8gb stick. Also agree with the other answer an ssd is a much better way to upgrade this notebook. I talk about this in my review. About the other answer though, he/she indicates two ram slots are in use. At least in mine it came with one 8gb stick instead of two 4gb sticks.

Windows 7 (64-bit) will only support up to 8GB of memory per dimm (slot). this board has (4) memory slots so, 4 x 8 = 32GB maximum will be supported.

Yes and no. This is for a new install. You will need to back up your data, and confirm all your software, hardware will work. There is a free program that will check your unit out at Microsoft. Download it run it and it will tell you what will or will not work. (Never had a problem upgrading a machine) Hope this helps.

Personally, for what I got this for, 4GB is way more than enough (it's not a gaming PC, though it can handle games on low-to-medium graphic settings). Apparently though, the RAM is soldered onboard. So while I'm not sure whether the motherboard can handle upgrades, it's probably quite a job if it's possible.

You need to look at the specifications of the motherboard - according to this link (http://www.okmemory.com/Compaq-Evo_Desktop-07E4h-D14503-memory.html), the answer is no

Unfortunately no. Your motherboard is rated at a maximum of only 2GB. You could try, but chances are your computer will not start or you'll be wasting 2 out of 4GB of memory. You CAN upgrade from the 1GB to 2GB that everyone has been doing, though, but be warned: The process on your particular model is a rather tricky one. It involves removing the back panel, your keyboard, and screws on the bottom and underneath the keyboard. You can find tutorials on how to do it, but I just want you to be fore-warned.

Yes this will work, because the memory slots A & B support up to 4GB per channel, and the motherboard has available 4 channels., which means it can be upgraded up to 16 GB.

hp pavilion dv7-1261wm - 17" - turion x2 rm-74 - vista home premium 64-bit - 4 gb ram - 500 gb hdd. if this is your model than yes and no although it may fit the power requirement may be slightly different. so it may work or check around for your cpu or go for broke the worst that will happen is your pc wont turn but i bet its not doing that now

Yes, your processor should be able to handle 2gb of RAM. You'll just need to remove your current stick and place this one inside the laptop.

This computer Supports 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB or 8 GB RAM DIMMs and has 4 (four) 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets. This PC comes with 10 GB of RAM that are DDR3-1600 PC3-12800 MB/sec type. This computer supports a maximum of 32 GB of RAM on a 64-bit OS. (Note: The included Windows 7 Home Premium wouldn't be able to address all 32 GB of RAM, it only supports 16 GB max. If you want to use all 32 GB of RAM, upgrade Windows to Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate, or any version of Windows 8/8.1.)Hope it helps.

Yes, we upgrade the computer to a Dell OptiPlex 780 and it can take 16GB's of RAM. If you order it and want to go above 4GB let us know so we put Windows 7 64 bit operating system on it. Otherwise it will not see the added RAM. Thanks, Computer World

I should work just fine. It looks like you can have 4GB max. so if you insert these two with your current you will have 3GB. Here is a link to your product specs that should help you get to know your comp. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00820191&cc;=us&dlc;=en&lc;=en

I successfully upgraded mine with 2 x 8GB DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz 240 pin UDIMM (16gb total memory showing both in the BIOS and Windows 8.1). I believe the G3220 supports up to 32GB but it is likely with 4 x 8GB RAM and this desktop only has 2 slots.
