top right hand corner of this site walks you through exactly what memory you needed by asking a few simple questions. good luck.

Crucial is a decent source and pretty accurate.
But what model computer do you have? Speed / current memory?

you really need to check your hardware compatibility list (HCL) you dont want to get something and have it not work.
matching memory is important as well if you are running dual channel.

I Gig is probably the max on those...
Go to cruciual and order the memory is probably the safest bet.
