    Laptop ram is a lot shorter than desktop ram, so it will not fit.

    Memory Type: DDR PC2700, DDR (non-ECC)
    Maximum Memory: 2GB
    Slots: 2
    Each memory slot can hold DDR PC2700 with a maximum of 1GB per slot.*

    It seems 256mb is built in. I can only see one slot holding 256 mb
    pc 2700S-25300
    256ddr 333 cl 2.5
    hynix china

    so i can only replace it by 1gb, having 1256 in total.
    replacing 40mb hdd
    Is using windows 7 suitable? maybe laptop is too old-from 2004.

    Specs say you have 2 slots and each slot will take 1 GB.

    When you remove that 256 chip, you should fine the other slot. Normally it is under the one with the ram chip in it.

    It is strange but true. The neutral booklet seems to be true for a two-slot-hp pavilion-laptop.

    since i can only mount one chip(1 gb max.) with the built in 256mb i will get 1256mb max.
