   If the memory connector (and the style of RAM) is the same then I expect   
   the computer will simply ignore the extra RAM as unaddressed. Wild guess   
   on my part.   
      
   Why not search "Adding more RAM to ASUS (model xyz) notebook" online?   
      
   For $6 it is worth the experiment, eh?
