    walmart's spec page is the worst piece of horse dung I have ever seen

    let's get some real data first

    download everest home and post the overclock report under computer

    leave off the the bottom debug crud

            This is the memory requirements for your Hp Pavilion s7310N. This is from HP web site. And to answer you question yes. But I would buy 2 and then you would have 1Gig of system memory. I have 1Gig of memory in my laptop and the performace is much better than when I only had 512Meg of memoy.

            Component Attributes
            Memory Installed 512 MB (2 x 256)
            Maximum allowed 2 GB (2 x 1 GB)
            Speed supported PC2-4200 MB/sec (runs @ 3200)
            Type 240 pin, DDR2 SDRAM
            DIMM slots Two
            Open DIMM slots None

                  Since you will have to pull the 2 256 megs sticks and be spending over 100$ for 2 sticks of the new ram, I would just optimize the computer and not
                  waste more money on an entry level machine, that cpu and bus speed are too lame to benefit much from the extra ram
