RAM upgrade question
Tis' the story of two laptops: a MacBook Pro "CoreDuo" 17" and a HP DV9650US. The MacBook has since died (bad logic board). However, in late 2009, I had upgraded its RAM with RAM made for Apple. The HP has never been upgraded since it was purchased about two years ago. It is slow so I was going to upgrade its RAM (currently about 2Gb) and upgrade its OS to x64.
Both laptops use ddr2 so I'm sure that the Apple RAM modules will fit in the slots on the HP. Will the HP recognize the RAM from the dead MacBook? Or should I just buy new RAM? I am on a budget here, so money is tight.
