I did. It is mentioned in the earlir posts.

Crucial do not know of my PC by the make and Model number. They also do not know it by the Motherboard model number. It will analyse what it CAN see, and makes recommendations as above. I bought the memory modules that Crucial recommended - although I used other sources to validate that choice first.

Oops, sorry.. I wasn't reading properly. I have raised this in another forum and forgot to mention my Crucial.com results here;

I checked with CrucialScan and the online resources of the Computer manufacturer, the Motherboard manufacturer and the Memory manufacturer. That doesn't mean I got it right though. .

Crucial.com System scan says

Our System Scanner couldn't make a complete match, but we can still help you find the right memory upgrade.

Then prompts to enter the manufacturer, Product Line and Model.

Further down the page it says;

The following is a list of what our scan was able to detect:
System Manufacturer: P4M80P
System Model: AWRDACPI
Motherboard Manufacturer: Foxconn
Motherboard Model: P4M800P7MB

Then it describes my system as:

Maximum Memory Capacity: 1048576 MB
Currently Installed Memory: 1024 MB
Available Memory Slots: N.A.
Total Memory Slots: 2
Dual Channel Support: N.A.
CPU Manufacturer: GenuineIntel
CPU Family: Intel(R) Celeron(R) D CPU 3.33GHz Model 6, Stepping 4
CPU Speed: 3319 MHz

Interestingly it shows two 512MB modules installed, DDR PC2-5200. Which is odd, as they are both 1GB PC2-4200.



If I follow the Crucial search function, when I enter the Manufacturer, etc. it takes me on a little journey. "Ei System" as manufacturer gets models 203 and 205, but not 204. "Foxconn" as manufacturer gets a list of motherboards, but not my one. So in this case, Crucial was slightly less than useful.

Checks that I made on the Foxconn site, and the Kingston site, were more... authoritative?... but brought me to this same place.

Kingston showed the following memory modules as being suitable for that motherboard;
