    Wanted to upgrade my HP Pavilion from 6GB. Selected this product, after having read good reviews from someone installing in similar HP, and it matched my needs and price range. First Memory package I received turned out to be defective. After two trips to best buy, I convinced them it was the RAM. They exchanged it, and I'm off and running. Make sure you get someone who can instruct you correctly on installation. Installing is easy, but on HP desk top, you have to match the color coded slots correctly.

    This memory would not install on my computer. All specs were compatible. I normally have not had a problem with PNY memory, but this would not pass the computer's memory tests when installed and caused continual blue screen memory dumps. I had the memory checked by a computer repair shop and it was determined to be defective. Item could not be returned because I was outside the return timeframe.
