A 2 GB DDR2 800 SODIMM module built for HP and Compaq Presario Cq60 and Cq61 notebooks
This 2 GB DDR2 800 MHz SODIMM is built for HP and Compaq Presario Cq60 and Cq61 notebooks. It installs in a 200-pin slot and runs at 1.8 V with CL6 timing. The module is unbuffered, non-ECC and uses major-brand chips. Computer Memory Solutions guarantees compatibility with the listed models.
Laptops that need a different DDR2 speed, a different pin count or a registered module cannot use this stick. Systems that require ECC memory or a voltage other than 1.8 V are also unsuitable. Buyers upgrading a desktop or a server should look elsewhere. The kit contains a single 2 GB stick only.
The memory operates at the PC2 6400 (DDR2 800) data rate. This speed decides whether the module matches the notebook's memory controller. If the original specification calls for PC2 5300 or PC2 6400 this part will work; a different DDR2 speed rating means it will not.

Power off the laptop and remove the battery. Open the memory compartment on the underside. Align the notch on the 200-pin module with the slot key, insert at an angle, then press down firmly until both side clips click. The step often missed is pressing down hard enough to engage both clips; a loose module will cause a no-boot condition.
The module has no heat spreader and uses unbuffered major-brand chips rated at 1.8 V. No scheduled maintenance is required. Keep the laptop vents clear so the memory stays within its thermal limits. If a memory error appears later, run a diagnostic such as MemTest86 to confirm the stick before replacing it.
The primary limit is the DDR2 800 (PC2-6400) bandwidth ceiling combined with CL6 latency. Under continuous heavy use the memory controller reaches its maximum throughput before the module overheats, since the chips are unbuffered and run at the standard 1.8 V without a spreader.
