    • Starting from the SD Memory Card hole, start prying between the top and bottom cases.

    • Use plastic tools to avoid damaging the cover.

    • Remove the bottom case.

    Love the tutorial man...but this is the most moronic thing I've ever seen...you can take batery out of laptop 15 years old in a flash, while here you have to disassemble the whole %#*@ laptop...only idiots can come up with something like that

    I have to agree that this is extremely complicated and intense.

    There is no way your average user should be doing this and the average user should be able to replace the battery!!

    Like everything in the computer world, hardware or software, ease of use is no longer even a consideration!!

    Technical Support Bots are the rule and they rarely are up to date with the pages on the website!!

    Sucks!!

Hi,

While adding an extra RAM to the module in Aspire V5-472, I forgot to disconnnect the battery first.

I first tried 4 GB RAM compatible, SODIMMM- DDR3L 204-Pin Laptop Memory, Low Voltage. When that didn't work, I checked again.

Next time I disconnected the battery, and repeated the process with 2 GB RAM, compatible, SODIMMM- DDR3L 204-Pin Laptop Memory, Low Voltage. The RAM was still not discovered. None of the RAMs were detected.

Hope I haven't fried the RAM Module itself.

Please help.
