1. Turn off the computer and disconnect the AC adapter.
2. Disconnect all peripherals and carefully turn the unit over.
3. The memory compartment is the long thin compartment in the middle of the unit, below the intake fan.
4. Remove the screw from the compartment cover and set it in a safe place.
5. Remove the compartment cover by sliding it toward the right of the system and then angling it up and out.
6. You will now see the RAM slot, which might be occupied by a DDR SO-DIMM module. If you need to remove a SO-DIMM module to install a higher capacity module, you can do so by gently pushing out on the edge clips to release the module. Then angle the card and slide it from its edge connector slot. Store the card in the anti-static bag that contains your new module(s).
7. To install the new memory card, hold the card with its gold edge connector toward the edge connector slot of the compartment. In order to help you orient the cards, the edge connector has been made with two unequal-length sections. The longer section should be placed toward the front end of the machine.
8. Holding the card at a shallow angle, insert the edge connector into the slot. When the card is fully inserted, the gold edge connector should not be visible.
9. Press the card downward until it is flat. You should hear an audible click as the latches of the connector secure the card in place.
10. Once the module is properly seated, you can replace the cover on this compartment. Start with the cover slightly to the rear of the system. Press the cover flat and then slide it into place. The hole in the cover should align with the screw hole in the system case.
11. Replace and tighten the screw.
12. Turn the unit over, connect your power cord if desired, and restart the computer. Your WinBook notebook should automatically register the new memory. If the memory size indicated during the POST (Power On Self Test) that appears when you boot does not match your new memory configuration, retrace the steps of the installation to be certain that the modules are properly installed.
