how many ram modules do you think this laptop has?

Hi,
I've heard rumors that there is a second ram module under its keyboard but I want to be sure before opening it up, can anyone verify that via a picture or so?

Specs show that it comes with 512MB, and can be upgraded to seat 2 (2gb) sticks for a total of 4gig of RAM

Tnx, but I can't see the second one when I open up the ram slot!

Your computer might only have 1 module in it, with empty space for a second one.

Compare the amount of RAM the computer can see to the label on the memory module (read the capacity off of the sticker on the module you can see, then close the hatch, turn your computer on and look in it's settings for how much RAM the computer actually has; on windows, go to control panel > system and read the RAM figure).

If the computer reports a higher figure than the one you read off the board, there must be another module in there somewhere. (Note that if the computer reports a lower figure than is written on the module this is normal for some laptops, where part of the RAM is reserved for use by the video card)

There is nothing in the instruction manual about a module under the keyboard (see page 52).

Your computer came with the stock 512MB RAM. One "stick"... you will have to buy a second "stick", or replace your stock stick with a larger module...

You could buy 2 (1gb) modules, and take your 512MB module out, and put both 1gb modules in, and have a total of 2gb

Thank you all great and kind people for your care, I'll test it out when I'll get home and reply back.

Love you all, really.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

I installed it! =))
as u can see in the pix, Its in such strange place that I didn't even suspect it when I was searching for it several times before, and being me, who was assembling desktop PC's for years, when I was younger.

Thank's y'll, I was actually going to sell this module!
