How to Become Successful In Adding RAM To Your Desktop
Steps to Add RAM To Your Computer
Turn off the PC and unplug the system from the power supply. Detach all the cables and move the computer to an
appropriate location.
Take out the side cover from your system. Different computers have different attachment. Some are attached via clips or
screws. Look at the manual in order to check how the cover comes off.
Touch the metal of the computer case or put on a ground strap which would keep you away from any kind of static. You
do this to save your computer components from any static shock.
Find out the RAM slots. If you find wires blocking the way, see if you can move them without detaching them. If in case
you need to unhook any of them, ensure you attach them appropriately once you put in the new memory.
Open the RAM which you purchased. Always remember that you should hold the RAM by the edges and not by the
surfaces or pins.
If you are replacing the old with the new one, look at the RAM slots in your desktop. You can notice little tabs on the
sides of the memory. Push the sides down allowing the memory to pop up and come loose. Take out the old RAM from
the machine and insert the new memory in the place where the previous one was. Push down on every side and notice
that the tabs rise up. Get it in place with the tabs clicked and you can see that the tabs are in the small groove holes of
the sides of the memory.
In case you are adding memory, find out a free slot. Take out the new RAM and put it into the free slot. Push down on
every side allowing the tabs to rise up. Get it in place with the tabs clicked and you can see that the tabs are in the small
groove of the sides of the memory.
Once you have placed the memory in its correct position, connect the cables that you have detached.
Take of the grounding strap and place the cover back on to the computer.
Connect all the cables and plug it back in. If you were successful in adding the memory, your computer should be able
to boot up normally. In order to see if the installation process you followed was correct, go to Start menu, click settings,
next click Control Panel. Then hit System and choose the General tab. You would be able to see the amount of RAM at
the very bottom of the page.
