Yes, you can replace the RAM modules yourself. There will be 1 or 2 panels on the bottom of the laptop that you will need to unscrew and remove. The modules are held flat with 2 retaining pins. You need to move the retaining pins out of the way and then raise the modules to about a 45 degree angle and then pull them out of their slots. The new modules go in the reverse order. You also want to remove the battery and unplug the power cord before removing and replacing modules. I'm guessing that laptop has a single 512 MB module and has an empty module bay. If that's the case, you can add a 512 MB or 1024 MB module to the empty bay. If you decide to max out the RAM, then you'll insert a 1024 MB module in both bays. -------------------------------------------------------------- |

----------------------------------------------------------------- Follow my instructions carefully and take your time. The startup entries that I've highlighted in bold text may or may not have .exe in the names in your computer, so be aware of that. Some of these startup entries don't need to load and run at all, and others can be manually started when needed. Click Start - Run, type in MSCONFIG and then click OK - Startup(tab). Remove the checkmark in HP Health Check Scheduler C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Health Check\HPHC_Scheduler.exe SunJavaUpdateSched C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\jusched.exe NvCplDaemon RUNDLL32.EXE C:\Windows\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup NvMediaCenter RUNDLL32.EXE C:\Windows\system32\NvMcTray.dll,NvTaskbarInit RegisterHPDeviceDetectionDll regsvr32.exe WMPNSCFG C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\WMPNSCFG.exe Microsoft Find Fast C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\FINDFAST.EXE Office Startup C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OSA.EXE Microsoft Office C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE After you're done, click Apply - OK - Exit Without Restart. Click Start - Run, type in SERVICES.MSC and then click OK. Expand the services window to see the list more clearly. Highlight and double-click on Google Updater Service (gusvc) HP Health Check Service hpqwmiex NVIDIA Display Driver Service (nvsvc) stllssvr XAudioService Change the setting from Automatic(if currently set there) to Manual, then click Apply - OK. (Note: You have to change the setting in one entry at a time). After you're done, close the services window and then restart your computer. Run a HijackThis scan and then post that new log here. -------------------------------------------------------------- Do you actually use the "quick play" and "quick launch" button features? ------------------------------------------------------------- |
