I know that it's an old laptop. It's for Grandma guys! I am just trying not to add on to this gigantic pile of trash we create everyday. She only opens an email with it, ok? Large screen, large letters etc. Anyway, anyone was able to upgrade this model to 4GB RAM? I see some websites selling up to 8GB ram for this machine. At the same time Acer specs and others claim that 2GB RAM is max. Acer has really poor support site, no documentation - bare bones... Here are some other spec: Intel Pentium dual-core processor T2310; 1,46 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1MB L2 cache Thanks for help!

The Acer Aspire 7720 includes two RAM modules preinstalled, each consisting of one 1-gigabyte stick. The specs indicate a maximum capacity of four gigabytes. The website also mentions the possibility of adding up to two more gigabytes, bringing the total to four. However, since there are only two RAM slots available, upgrading would require replacing the existing sticks with two 2-gigabyte modules for a four-gigabyte configuration. The author shares their experience upgrading their machine to match this setup and replacing the hard drive with a 512GB SSD. To access the RAM slots, simply remove the back cover of the laptop. Finding a tutorial on YouTube can help if you need guidance. Good luck!
