Ram upgrade to 8GB on laptop with DDR2@333Mhz?

Ram upgrade to 8GB on laptop with DDR2@333Mhz?

This is the current RAM information (1GB+1GB) for my laptop and it's DDR2. Is it possible to buy two new 4GB chips and upgrade my RAM to 8GB? Also, this RAM runs on 333MHz at the moment. Can I get 800MHz bus speed on the new chips and is that the max?

"I build laptops in my company and you should try to find out and see if anyone else has managed to first.

There are very few laptop chipsets that support above 4GB and you can actually break the machine by inserting larger chips."

"It depends on motherboard, but I think isn't possible. Maybe BIOS upgrade solved problem with max ram limitation?
