Hi all.<br>
I am preparing to upgrade my laptop's memory as 512MB is really not<br>
enough. I'd just like to know whether something like this<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kingston-ValueRAM-533MHz-Non-ECC-SODIMM/dp/tech-data/B0006VX0CI/ref=de_a_smtd" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kingston-ValueRAM-533MHz-Non-ECC-SODIMM/dp/tech-data/B0006VX0CI/ref=de_a_smtd</a><br>
<br>
is suitable for my Dell Inspiron 1300 running Intrepid.<br>
<br>
Also, what would happen once the memory is in? Could I just boot up and<br>
have the memory recognised, or would I have to fiddle around with config<br>
files and so on?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
