    Hi,

    I recently bought some ram to upgrade my whitebook with, but my system was never shipped with any documentation, so I'm not quite sure how to go about doing it. I called up xotic pc, because my warranty is with them, but they stated that they are unable to help me with this.

    I looked around for some documentation/instructions online, but was unable to find anything specific for my system. I was able to find instructions for installing ram in general on laptops, but I'm not sure if it will be the same for my system.

    So, someone be able to provide general directions, with pictures if possible, or if someone could link me instructions to any official documentation, that would be great.

    This is my first time opening up a computer, so I don't want to do something stupid and void the warranty.

    Thanks,

    -me12345

    Basicly you shove it in the socket, push down the clips, press the power button and then you have a faster computer. Hope that helps ;)

    Thanks for the PDF link! It's beyond me, why I was unable to find that myself.

    Ugh.
