    Help, I tried to remove the bottom case lid for installation after unscrewing all the screws but everytime I tried to lift up the lid it only opens up half a cm. I'm lost on how to add in my ram, i want to aplogize for my awkward tone and many thanks in advance.

    You either missed a screw, or you have to pull harder. Even after all the screws are out, there are still small flaps on the sides of the lid that hold it up. Thus you need to apply some pressure to pull it off.
