According to the samsung site, the first 128mb is soldered to the board (not a stick). Even if the bios supported 8GB, the slot only supports 512MB, and you already have that.

Not sure on the CPU; samsung does not have any information about the CPU on their website. You sure the whole model number is Q10? Check the bottom sticker.

no that its just q10,
i have seen a cpu on ebay that is the same p3 as the laptops one but a 1.4 and its only £15 so if the mobo could handle is i would do the upgrade and as for the ram i was thinking maby with a bios update i could put 1gb or more in that slot.
thanx for the help

see if can find a disassembly manual for your laptop to see if your cpu can be removed & maybe upgraded.
