If you’re curious about how much memory your notebook can handle, here’s a straightforward guide to finding out the maximum RAM capacity for your PC.
Start by opening the Command Prompt, which is a simple tool you can use to access various system commands.

First, click on the search box on your taskbar. Type in “cmd” and find the option that says "Run as administrator." Click on it to open the Command Prompt with the necessary permissions.

wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx
and hit the Enter key.
This command will display the maximum RAM capacity that your notebook’s motherboard can support.
After running the command, you’ll see a number listed in Kilobytes. To convert this number to Gigabytes, simply divide the displayed value by 1,048,576. This will give you a clearer picture of how much memory you can upgrade to.
Now, it’s essential to note that for the HP 15s-fq2xxx model series, HP does not provide a dedicated service manual. They typically release service manuals for the original model series, which in this case, is the 15s-fq0xxx.
Furthermore, the HP 15s-fq models are part of the 15-dy model series, and both use the same maintenance guide. While it may not be specific to the 15s-fq2xxx model, you can still refer to the HP 15 Laptop PC Maintenance and Service Guide for general information.
However, finding specific specifications and motherboard part numbers for a 15s-fq2xxx notebook can be challenging, as the available documentation may not address those details. Keep this in mind as you research your upgrade options.
By following these steps, you’ll be able to determine the maximum memory your notebook can support and know the right resources to consult for more information. Happy upgrading!
