Title: Installing RAM upgrade for Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pro V2010

Cursed, manufacturers!

The laptop is fine and it was veyr easy to find out what type of SODIM it needs to upgrade it from the moronically low 256Mb standard. Unlike older laptops Iv'e had, it can upgrade a lot too - not just to "double" as I've had in the past.

BUT

You can't get the sodding thing open. The little hatch on the bottom that I initially presumed hid the ram doesn't open in any obvious manner, and when I resort to the humble operation of reading the manual... it says "you can't do this, a trained expert must do it".

Yeah, so instead of �35 for a SODIM, it's �35 for a SODIM, �25 carriage to send it to them, and �100 an hour for them to open it up and fit it, and, I bet, they won't fit the SODIM I already sourced. Sod that.

Anyone know how to do it? Lots of screws but I don't want to undo any that will subsequently prove tricky to re-fasten for any reason.

Read the other tips from the first site. Maybe you'll find what you want on the Fujitsu link?
