* Maximum memory speed supported by the system may be 1333 MHz or 1066 MHz.
NOTE: Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we recommend HP branded memory to
ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the lower memory speed. With Windows Starter 32-
bit operating systems, the amount of usable memory is dependent upon your configuration, so that above 3 GB all memory may
not be available due to system resource requirements.
