As far as I know Compaq uses proprietary ram. The compaqs I've seen
have the ram installed on a card which is fitted onto a panel at the
back. Its easy enough to put in. I once took apart a compaq notebook
to see what compnents they used. But because its not standard ram  you
probaly have to buy the ram from Compaq.
