Introduction

Before replacing the memory, be sure to double check this guide for any possible symptoms that may be causing this.
Warning: Disconnecting the battery, unplugging the charger if still plugged in, adding an anti-static wristband can help ensure there is no power surge damage to the laptop's motherboard. For a further explanation how to use this wristband please refer to this guide.
