I use the Crucial System Scanner on every computer I come across that needs a memory upgrade. It’s never been wrong, in my experience. The only problem I’ve ever had with Crucial was that one of the memory modules they shipped was not functioning and they cross-shipped a new module to replace it. I definitely trust Crucial and will continue to use them.
It did not help me at all. All it told me I already knew about my system. Did NOT recommend a memory configuration at all. Total waste of time.
Kaht, is it possible that you have a custom system? The System Scanner tool is by no means perfect. However, it hasn’t failed me, yet, and, as you can see, your comment is the only one stating anything negative about it.
I have a compaq C712NR laptop computer with 1 meg of ram. I would like to add another meg of ram. I cannot find this exact laptop number in your list. Could you tell me what I need to order, and the price?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Frank, try the System Scanner. They may not be able to identify your specific model, but they’re very good at finding memory that’s compatible with your system board.
