I am working on a Compaq Pressario 2240. The online manual and Compaq tech
support has advised me that this computer has 16 megs or ram soldered on
the motherboard and a 16 meg SDRAM in the DIMM slot. Visual inspection has
confirmed this. I have been told I can pull the 16 in the DIMM slot and put
in a 32 for a maxim of 48.

  Is 48 the absolute top...is this a BIOS limitation. Has anybody tried
putting a 64 for a total of 80 in here ? Is the SDRAM proprietary
Compaq  ... or will any SDRAM work ?

thanks
