[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1044871, member: 56379"] I'm not 100% sure...but I guess you could install 1 X 2gb stick of RAM & 1 X 1gb stick of RAM for a total of 3gig ram. The reason why I say this is...officially from Apple...the max. ram for your MacBook is only supposed to be 2 gig. But users have found that you can install 2 x 2 gig sticks for a total of 4 gig...but the laptop can only address 3 gig of the 4 gig of ram. Maybe what you could do initially is...your MacBook currently has 1 gig of ram (probably 2 x 512meg). You could order one 2gig stick of ram, and replace one of the 512 sticks currently in the laptop. That would give you 2.5 gig of ram. Then you could decide later if you need to upgrade further. Give this a read if you want to know more: [url]http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-gb-memory-limitation-details.html[/url] Hope this helps, - Nick [/QUOTE]
