Well after an iffy start my Notebook is now running with 8GB of RAM. I'm feeling very pleased with myself, although a little foolish.
I put the new stick in but it wasn't recognised, did it again and the same, still showing just 4GB installed. Opened the machine up again and looked, the light bulb went on then I hadn't pushed it fully into place.
Turn on, yippee 8GB of RAM installed, what makes me laugh though was when I had 4GB I had a score of 4.4 because of the desktop graphics, everything else was high up in the 5 score. Now I have 8GB the memory has gone up to 7.9 the others are still 5+ but the graphics are now down to 4
I'm happy though that I managed to do it myself and not have to get my son-in-law to do it, he's the tech.
I found out the same thing installing mine.
If the laptop RAM was any tighter in the slots you would need a hammer to install.

That's true Mike, thing is it was easy after I made sure it was pushed right up at the top. I was pleased though I had a set of those jewellery screwdrivers or I wouldn't have been able to do it, my collection of household ones wouldn't have fit.

I told you . . . anyone who can cross-stitch like you would be able to installl the RAM! Well done!!
Thanks, although I don't think the two have that much in common, apart from being nimble with my fingers.
I'll agree with what someone said that I would feel very proud of doing it, mind I think it's probably the easiest upgrade you can do so that's OK.

Congrats Joan on getting the new RAM installed! I am impressed! None of my sisters would even attempt to do something like that.
