Ramaxel PC2-5300U-555

I have a HP Compaq dc7800 SFF KMAT with 2GB of memory that I am tring to increase by adding 2 more sticks or purchasing 4 new ones.  The sticks say they are Ramaxel, 1GB 2RX8 PC2-5300U-555 LF.  I have searched the various memory vendors including the non-existent Ramaxel??? and found nothing that comes close to the 5300U-555 spec.  Does anyone have a clue for this?  Thanks in advance.

My first thought is 533 DDR, but who knows.
Try running:

or

CPU-Z

Thanks for the comment coral47.  I forgot to mention that the current sticks (2) are 667.  I have some DDR 533's that I installed one at a time but when I boot the system, it beebs back and never powers up.  I also threw in a 266 stick but alas, the same response.  So I am looking for replacements for this system.  The HP/Compaq site was no help.

Thanks for the assist. I actually found a some sticks sitting in a desk drawer that were from another vendor (Crucial) and they popped right in so I bought what I needed.  Thanks again.
Thank you much.   : )
