Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Is your computer running slowly when you have multiple browser tabs open? It might be time for a RAM upgrade. Follow this guide for the removal and reinstallation of your laptop’s RAM component.
Replacing RAM is a very simple, straight-forward process. However, the laptop's battery must be removed prior to removing the battery, making the entire process moderately difficult.
For this guide, all you need is a plastic opening tool and a Phillips #1 screwdriver head.
