I assume the Windows 8 is the 64bit version (better be!)>>>>>>>>>
Darn right it better be! It can handle 16GB. Of the two memory slots only one slot is occupied by a 4gb module. So they say. So I need only add a 4gb or 8gb module for a very nice upgrade
The 2020m cpu can use up to 32 Gb, not 16.
You almost certainly need to have matching ram chips.
Also I would not assume the OS to be anything other than 32 bit. The cpu might be 64 bit, but the OS is what determines memory handling.
Hold down the Windows key and tap the Pause or Break key (and the FN key on some) for a shortcut to the system window which will tell you this. Or do the Windows key and "i" key and hit PCinfo .
If you want more shortcuts let me know (or see FR thread here
Note also that if you want a vast improvement on sound, for about 2.00 you can get an FM transmitter. I wonder why it is not USB powered though
Better to hear the word of God with.
