Laptop sony vaio freezes without the memory stick inserted

I have this laptop (the PCG-632L). My laptop shiped with the "Vaio Notebook Quick Start" manual for the "PCG-R505 series". You could seach the Internet for this manual instead of the "PCG-632L" manual. The manual says "quick start," but it goes into slightly more detail than the average "quick start" manual (such as changing RAM).

below is a link for a 320 gig hard drive for your model, i hope this helps

Hi astraspirit2. The Sony Vaio PCG-F190 uses 66MHz type memory and usually ships from Sony with 32/64MB of RAM. The Vaio PCG-F190 supports up to 192MB of RAM.
Most laptops have the memory compartment (at least the expansion socket or both) at the bottom. Flip the computer and you will see a little compartment (sometimes it even has a little chip logo). You will need a phillips #0 or #1 screwdriver. It's really simple, you insert the memory in the socket at an angle and then push it towards the laptop. I hope this helps.

PCG-K415B is the correct model number the label is possibly the service tage or something.

Here are the specifications of your laptop

• Intel Celeron D Processor 345 3.06GHz / 533MHz FSB
• 512MB DDR SDRAM - Low cost double memory Offer - call for details
• 40GB Hard Drive
• DVD Dual Layer Drive - To read DVDs and CDs and write CDs, DVD+, DVD- and large Dual Layer DVD
• 15.4" XGA Widescreen TFT Screen
• ATI Mobility Radeon 345M 64MB shared graphics
• Integrated wireless 802.11b/g LAN - Call for advice on Wireless networking
• Integrated 3-in-1 card reader –Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, Memory Stick Duo
• Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition
• Includes Sony Software Bundle

My guess is that the laptop is around 1 or 1and half year old as the celeron 3.06GHz is a relatively new processor.

You can only use memory PCG-GR370.
To reach 1GB buy two (2) of these.
