You could try ebay for the pc66 non-ecc ram that your older HP needs. I
see auctions with 128mb sticks for under $10, plus shipping. Try to get
2 of the same part number, many auctions are buy-it-now and also
indicate that more than one piece is available. You can contact the
seller first to see if he has 2 similar chips before you buy.
HP's web site has specs on their products. A quick search came up with
a Presario SR1525IN, which is a pentium 4 with pc3200 memory.
Definiterly not compatible. Are you sure you got the presario 1525
model number right? HP also uses product numbers. The SR1525IN model
is PY076AA.
Kingston.com is a site that lets you look up memory specs. Compaq/HP
presario 1525 is not listed there. Same results with crucial.com,
another memory firm..
The compaq may have pc66 memory if it is a similar vintage. Does it
still work? If so, you can hook it up and check the specs in /control
panel /system. If not, make sure it's unplugged, open the case (usually
remove 3-4 screws on the back or sides) and check it. If you need help,
email the list again.

>Would the RAM from a Compaq Presario 1525 be compatible w/ a HP Pavillion 8360 ? I've found that the HP RAM runs at 66 mhz, and that has made it costly to find. I had the Compaq given to me to use anything salvagable from it, it's about as ancient as the HP, but the HP is running now for my 7 yr old and I would like to add some RAM. I can't find info for the Compaq like I have the HP, and I haven't gone inside it yet. If anyone knows, please tell me...
