[intro]
The first thing you'll need is a mini screw driver (cross head)
You'll need the laptop itself
and of course the RAM.
You will have 11 screws on the bottom of the case
which you will need to un-screw.
There's a hidden screw in the middle,
in the center of the laptop.
I'd recommend having a little bag next to you
so you don't lose the screws.
In case of any..
thing happens to them or you may lose one.
Next you want to open up the case
you can either use a small card or anything that is flat
so in this case I have a..
flat head screw driver and I am just
carefully
opening it up by
jamming it into the side of
the case.
There is a really thin gap between them.
You can eve use your finger nails.
Next step is to touch any sort of metal.
This is if you don't have an anti-static wrist band
this is to
discharge you from any energy that you have.
Next you want to disconnect the battery.
So the first thing is
to..
un-plug it and you can remove the battery by
un-clipping the two clips which hold it down.
You want to hold down the power button for atleast
10 to 15 seconds to drain all the power which is remaining in the laptop.
Now that you've done that you can go back to the bottom of the case.
This is where the RAM is.
First of all you want to uninstall the current RAM.
Which is installed by un-clipping the two clips which hold it down.
This will just pop it back up and it will be at a angle.
Next you want to get your new RAM and install it into the first slot
which is the bottom one.
Make sure that you put it at a angle of about 40 degrees or 45.
You will notice the..
difference between the angle.
As you can see it should look a little bit like this.
Make sure it's fully in
and then you just want to press down on it
and then clip it on.
Next you want to install the second RAM stick.
Once again you want to put it at an angle
this one is slighly higher, so..
you may need to
lift it up a little bit.
As you can see the same applies for this one
the two clips hold it down
now this one is at a much higher angle
so it is a little bit more difficult to get in.
As long as you lift just slightly higher
and you
hear for the clicking sound
it will be in.
And this is pretty much it.
Now you want to add the battery once again.
Make sure you
put it down and the clips are holding on to it.
Connect the battery back up.
Put the case back on.
You will hear some clicking sounds.
Just make sure that all the sides are down.
Add the screws again.
Final step: turn the laptop on.
RAM will automatically install and configure new settings. Loading times will increase on bootup.
