How can I tell how much RAM My pc can take?

It is a HP Intel Celeron..

It came with 256MB DDR, Ive already fitted another 256MB in the only other bay.

How can I tell if it will take 512MB in each bay?

Thanks
MidiMoto

Well what model HP is it? Usually looking up the model # on google or HP's site will give you all the information on the computer.

i think 512MB is the max memory it can hold since they don't sell anything bigger. they would probably sell a 1GB stick if it could hold that much.
