I'm upgrading my Presario 5838. Does this standard pc100 128mhz 16M memory
by Kingston work in my model?
http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/configurator/PartsInfo.asp?
ktcpartno=KVR100X64C2/128

Or does it have to be specifically made for Compaq? The guy at the local
store wasn't sure.

Thanks
TT

Yes, standard PC100 will work fine. You might also try:
