    sony vgnnr21e/s it

    Hi all, i have a sony vgn-nr21e / s it dusted off from the attic. after installing w7 i tried to replace the two 1gb ram banks with two 2gb but the pc crashes.
    on the sony site in italy the drivers and bios are no longer available. Can anyone help me? I think and hope that if you could update the bios the crash problem would be solved

    thank you in advantage

    Sonys site wasn't much help. No specs really listed. No bios update

    But I did find out that it literally does not support 4gb, it supports two.

    Sometimes these things can be iffy so try 3gb. If the limitation is 2gb (or three) install win 7 32 bit. 64 has the windows SxS (side by side) system for compatibility with 32-bit programs and it takes up some ram itself

      sony are fuckers - i'v been through the bios hunt so many times,

      try sony sites in lots of different country's, believe it or not they have different content.

        They dropped support for vista nd win 7. The max supported ram is 2GB .

          Chipset doesn't support 4GB of RAM for sure. It may work with 3GB, only way to know is to try.

            Yeah I had a DV1000 that didn't support 4, it listed it as maximum support for 2. But I did get three working with no problem
