    SO I am not new to installing RAM on a laptop, but this time I am confused as to whether or not there is a special way to install the memory. The 1st slot is an easy replacement install. When I try to place in the memory module for the 2nd slot, the module will not fit snugly into place. The notch in the memory module also does not go all the way in. I am a bit afraid to try to use force to see if it is possible to push the module more in depth. All the memory modules are the same type as I have tested them all out in the 1st slot. Also, the original manufacturer memory will also not install in the 2nd memory slot correctly.
