How much ram can i install in e620-5885 - eMachines E620-5885 Notebook

The RAM module/s is located on the bottom of the laptop behind a small panel. Remove this panel will uncover the RAM slots.
To install more RAM try to use RAM from the same manufacturer and RAM speed.

To check if you have a RAM problem, go into the BIOS and check the amount of RAM installed, does this match the total amount of RAM installed, if the RAM in the BIOS does not match the total amount of RAM in the RAM modules then you may a faulty RAM module or an incompatible RAM module.
If it is a software problem, a program may require more RAM than is installed on your computer. The software instructions will recommend the amount of RAM your computer should be installed with.

Is the 1Gb RAM you purchase the same make and speed as the original? If not, they may not be compatible with each other or the new RAM module may be faulty.
Try removing the RAM from slot 1 and insert the new 1Gb RAM module in slot and boot up your laptop to test the new 1GB RAM module.
Installing a single 2Gb RAM module should work.

Please check in to your Bios system maybe share memory Video or capacity is setting

Have u installed compatible RAM i.e. of same frequency as earlier RAM or just installed another RAM. Pl check for this . Also increase paging and ur system speed will do increase. Also keep ur primary partition less loaded for this.

Hello,

Is the old ram working if installed alone? If yes then maybe got error or grounded if both ram inserted. Try to blow air the ram slot in the board to eliminate dirt and then try to interchange the position of the ram and then try it again.

Hope this will work.

Install the RAM on memory slot and Switch on your system and go to BIOS settings. There you can check whether your RAM is working properly or not. If it shows no memory installed then the RAM Chip may be damaged.

Windows xp will usually only see 3.5 gbs of ram even in your motherboard can support more. WIndowns vista does recognize more RAM or i also believe windows xp 64bit recognizes more ram. Nothing wrong with ram or your computer its just your operating system.

no need to install RAM in pairs.
you can buy and install memory but it should be the same model that you have now e.g. DDRII RAM Modules.
you can max out the RAM 4 gigs

try to come back with old configuration second time check new ram , may be something no good
