Default Upgrading Presario 1255 memory?

Is there a way through the bios (or other non-destructive means) to increase
the ram memory capacity of a Compaq Presario 1255? In other words can a
256mb ram expansion be made to work?
The manufacturer's stated max is 160mb.

Thanks Wayne

I would think that you'd be stuck at 160MB. Very few, if any, 256MB PC66
SODIMMs were ever made... Ben Myers

Nope. Sorry.

The base memory is soldered to the M'Board as well.
