I have an AMD Sempron 3000+

I was wondering what types of RAM it supports. I want to upgrade the ram but I don't know what it takes. Can it take DDR3? And if so, how much?

Your MOTHERBOARD dictates how much and what kind of memory is supported.

My dad's Sempron 2800+ only supported 32-bit OS and his motherboard only supported DDR (not DDR2 or DDR3) up to 512MB per slot.

*Your Sempron may be 64-bit and your motherboard details may be different. If you have a 32-bit OS (like Windows XP 32-bit) you'd still be limited to 4GB of addressable memory (including the DDR and Video RAM).

Does the fact that it's a laptop make a difference?? It's a Compaq Presario V2000
