Hello Guys,
i really need some Help,
my mack book pro is 15-inch Early 2008 MacBookPro4,1
2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
when i checked on Crucial, they say i can make it 4 Gb Ram 2X2
and even here in some Topics it say it can be 6 Gb, 1 is 4Gb and the other one is 2Gb
one year ago it was 2 Gb 1X1 and i wanted to upgrade it
then i tried a cheap Kingston it didn't work 2X2 it only worked as one of the Originals 1GB with one of the new Kingston 2 GB, when i opened about this Mac, the King Stone in the Manufacturer or the Serial Number it was 000000
so i thought maybe this Ram is Low Quality and maybe that's why
2 weeks ago i said i will upgrade my Laptop so i asked when of my Friends from the US to bring my 1 TB HD, and 4 GB Ram 2X2
but on amazon i made sure it's certified Apple
"Certified for Apple Memory Module 4GB 667MHz DDR2 (PC2-5300) - 2x2GB SO-DIMMs MA940G/B by Arch Memory"
today when i try to install it, doesn't work at all only worked when i installed one of them with the Original 1 Gb so in the end i'm back to the same Situation only 3 GB
can you help me ? tell me if i should lose hope and this the Maximum Memory my Laptop can have or what to do if it's not!
Best Regards,
Belal
