" Hi! My name is Stephanie and I’m here on behalf of expertvillage.com. Please visit our web site at www.clickincomputer.com. Since it’s easier to access we will install the RAM now. Always install one stick of RAM into the first slot, which is marked either 0 or 1. Line up the grove in the RAM with the notch in the motherboard, then push it in making sure it is fully seated. Now if you will notice this latch is standing up and needs to be pulled back fully. Make sure that the other side is too so goes in properly. As you push down the little latches will start to move in. To make sure it is fully seated you push both latches in. Make sure they are clipped and tight. Your motherboard may have one or more slots for expansion later, but today we are only going to install one stick of RAM. "
