thanks friend for ans. but please suggest me about memory upgrade currently i m using 256MB,i want to upgrade it can i need to go 2GB or 512MB.
which will suitable for my laptop.
running windows xp 1gb (even upgrading to 512mb you will notice performance boost)..vista without eye candy 2gb will manage but wont perform as well as if it is xp...i think the reason u asked for upgrade is becos you dont wanted to spend that much on buying a new system, is it?

first of all thanks to you frnds for answer.yes you guessed,i don't want to spend much money on system.
please suggest memory which company and also cost in delhi please.
thanks in advance.
i think it is better that you head to www.crucial.com
and use the crucial system scanner tool to determine what type of memory is supported by your system. This will ensure that you won't be suggested the wrong memory type for your particular model of that series of laptop by compaq.
after determining the exact memory type, you could then take a look at the same memory from other brands like kingston, corsair, transcend

Better get another 512MB or 1G stick as dual channel 512 is not helpful for Vista. Even in XP most of the time 1G single channel seems better than 512 dual channel as the memory usage in XP w/o ny apps running wud come close to 300~400, so not much room for apps.
And dun even try vista on 512.
