No. Your laptop uses PC2700 DDR SDRAM SODIMMs and is limited to 2G of memory.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Sounds like a bad bet to consider this module. The manual on your machine specifies that it comes with "256-MB DDR1 synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) at 333 MHz, expandable to 2.0 GB." Therefore, the max memory addressable by your machine by spec is only 2GB, not 4. On top of that the PNY module is DDR3 1066 MHz. This module is out of spec every way you look at it. The manual for your machine is available at https://mans.io/item/HP/pavilion-dv8301nr. It cannot be viewed at HP because HP has stopped supporting it and taken down their support links including for the manual.
