    Post here if you have upgraded the RAM in your AA1.

    Need to know what RAM works in What models, OP will be updated to reflect this.

    I will attempt building an eBay / Google search into each model number to assist in finding suppliers.

    Re: RAM. What Works, What Doesn't

    Kingston KVR667D2S5/1G (667Mhz, 1GB , 1.8v, SODIMM) not working. I installed and when in BIOS SETUP the PC is still showing 512MB . ¿What im doing wrong? ¿Need to touch something in the BIOS SETUP?. Could be that 667Mhz memory is not supported? In normal PC if you plug 667Mhz and your memory slot is at 533 the RAM works well but at 533Mhz offcourse.

    PNY DDR2 pc2-4200/3200 1GB 533/400MHz

    Mixed results, so it's best to avoid

    677MHz RAM does not work. The motherboard will not underclock the RAM.

    Re: RAM. What Works, What Doesn't

    There are at least two reports (here and here) that indicate otherwise.

    If you'd like to discuss that further, let's take it to another thread so we can keep this one clean.

    Re: RAM. What Works, What Doesn't

    That is not the same as: Kingston KVR667D2S5/1G right?

    This last one doesnt work for me. Tomorrow i'll try another few modules... Hope not get the slot broken....

    It's a good idea to make a list of modules that work or dont work in the 1ºs post of this thread

    Buffalo D2N533B-1GA memory upgrade

    Buffalo's basic 1 GB / 533 MHz DDR2 SO-DIMM, works perfectly.

    Bought from Hagalin (.fi for webshop), cost me 21 euros on the shop.

    Re: RAM. What Works, What Doesn't

    1Gb Micron 667 CL5 (MT8HTF12864HDY-667E1) Works fine :)
    (also came out of a MacBook Pro)
    For anyone that hasn't done it before there's a good picture guide to installing the RAM in the slot here

    Re: RAM. What Works, What Doesn't

    Added 512MB of SIS DDR2 667 MHZ, pulled out of my EEE PC 701, wich I recently sold. ;) So, I now have 1GB in there, after a bit of a nerve wrecking experience, opening and closing this thing up.

    Read the how-to, before pulling those flat cables !
