I'm a spanking newbie trying to make sense of what I read on the HWinfo report. Moreover, I am an end user with a cloddish grasp of anything techie.
I'm trying to verify that the HP Pavillion DV7tqe laptop I bought is capable of using 16GB of RAM. I bought it with 8gb installed, with the intention of upgrading once the prices come down.
On the HWinfo report I am looking under: "motherboard/symbios dmi/memory devices/physical memory array/memory capacity". It reports 16777216 KBytes.
Since this number starts with "16", I am encouraged. Does this mean that my computer can accept and use 16gb or ram, if I choose to install it? Or am I way off track here?
Thanks!
