    E1505 Upgrade RAM Question:

    I bought 2 x 1 GB RAM from Dell. I was able to upgrade the 1 GB at the back of my laptop but when I open the flap over the keyboard and remove the keyboard I do not see a place where I can put the second memory stick.

    I would greatly appreciate if somebody can help.

    On most laptops the HDD and RAM slots are on the bottom of the laptop. There are usually panels that say HDD/RAM or have little icons of HDD and RAM. I know this is where they are on my HP and gateway. It may be a little different on a Dell, but i distinctly remember when helping a friend on his Dell that the RAM was on the bottom.

    Both of the memory modules go on the bottom of the laptop.
    Their is a plastic rectangle on the bottom of the laptop with small rectangular holes in it. It says C/M next to it.
    The two memory cards go in there.
    You must remove the original memory card(s) to install teh two 1gb memory cards.

    I own an E1505, its really very easy.
