[QUOTE="hugtheslug, post: 1224651, member: 48841"] Hi, I have exactly the same machine running Leopard superbly on 1.5gb RAM. It has one pc2700 1gb stick up inside (desktop RAM) and a 512mb laptop module under the base, but the max you can have is 2gb - 1gb in each slot. If yours is currently 2 x 512mb I would change the one in the base to 1gb and see how you go, because to upgrade the other RAM is a pig to do. I think the RAM needs to be [I]low density[/I] or it won't work. Apple branded will obviously work fine, but be more expensive. Hope this helps, cheers :) Hugh [/QUOTE]
