if a laptop has 533Mhz memory, will it work with the crucial 667Mhz ocUK sells?

Might do, lol

Depends if it's the right stuff, cause laptop memory is diffrent from normal memory, if i remembered correctly

And then theres Double densety or single densety ?!?

It is laptop memory 200pin modules I think, however, in the original spec they have 533Mhz DDR2. I want to install 667Mhz DDR2.

It should work ok.

Even if your laptop can't run it at 667mhz it will still run fine at 533mhz.

Thanks for the info! Crucial modules ocUK sells look good and is cheap for a 2gig kit .. so I ll give it a try I guess.

ps: is a toshiba laptop with an intel yonah centrino duo btw and ram is running at 533Mhz CAS4 atm, so you thing CAS5 667Mhz (if it works) will be faster?

There it little difference between CAS4 533mhz and CAS5 667mhz memory tbh.

The main difference will be going from 1gb to 2gb (if that's what you are doing).

Yes, just installed vista with 1gig. I feel 2gig is minimum.
