Anne;
I googled "pcgk74 memory"
I got a sony vaio laptop not a sanyo.
seems it uses pc2100 DDR 200 pin sodimms
184 pin is for desktop computers
pc2700 would probably be backward compatible.

1 gig total, so you will have to buy 2- 512mb modules.
most memory sellers have a search where you put in your 
brand/model computer and it will look up what memory you need.
