Memory upgrade I have located the obvious memory bank located on the bottom middle panel but I cannot find the second bank that supposedly exists, and do not want to tear the entire LT apart to find that it was located under the keyboard or somthing. Please help

Constant beeping when you turn a computer on is an indication that you have a RAM memory error. To confirm this, open the tower (after unplugging the unit and pressing and holding the power button in for 10 seconds to confirm there's no charge left). Locate the sticks of RAM memory and remove 1. Then plug the unit back in and reboot. In most cases, the beeping will go away and the machine will boot up. This doesn't usually mean you have a bad RAM memory module, just a bad "bank" on the motherboard. If you like the machine, and removing the RAM works for you, you can either run minus the stick of RAM (the machine will be slower) or do a motherboard upgrade. You can usually get a good motherboard + CPU upgrade in the $90 range. Choose a motherboard that will accommodate the existing RAM memory to keep the project cost effective.

there is a panel on the bottom of the computer that has one or two screws. take the panel off and you can remove the existing memory and replace it with the upgrade --- PC2700 memory. If this helped you, please rate me. Thank you

The only thing you could do is put in a 256MB module in the slot that you have access to. Only one socket is user upgradable. The second socket is only upgradable by a Dell service center. They would have to install a second 256 module to get you to the 512MB max.

usually under the bottom of the laptop there are some covers, the memory will be under one of them. To see what to look for follow this link: http://img.zdnet.com/techDirectory/_MEMMOD.GIF To find a compatible module run the tool from crucial http://www.crucial.com/systemscanner/index.aspx

Some Vaio laptops (and some HP's) have a memory slot under the keyboard.

The NEC Versa m500e has 2 memory slots. Each slot can hold DDR PC2700 with a maximum of 512MB per slot.

I'm not sure where the memory is located on the Versa, but normally in the middle on the bottom of the laptop there is a memory slot. on some units the memory is located under the keyboard, so you have to remove this first to change the memory.

Hope this helps

memory modules are under keyboard,you have to remove this first,1 hidden screw under(indicates a keyboard) and the 4 holds between the Fkeys(pull them down).Remove the keyboard and you''be able to see them....Chris/Greece

First thin you have to remember is if you want to have to memories in parallel...Then the new one should be of the same size and frequency(ex:133Mhz,533Mhz..etc.,)Then folow these steps:

1. Turn off the computer and remove all power cords from the computer system.
2. Locate the panel used for access to the memory modules. This is generally located on the bottom of the laptop computer. Refer to your laptop instruction manuals for locating the panel.
   
3. Remove any screws that the panel in place and place somewhere safe to prevent losing it.
   
4. Remove the panel from the laptop and set aside.
   
5. If replacing or upgrading an existing memory module, remove the memory modules by undoing and module clamps and gently lifting the edge of the module to a 45-degree angle and then pulling the module out of the slot.
   
   
6. Align the notch of the memory module with that of the memory slot and gently insert the module into the slot at a 45-degree angle.
   
7. Once all the pins are in the slot, gently rotate the module down flat until the clamps lock into the module into place.
   
8. Replace the memory access panel onto the laptop computer.
   
9. Replace any screws or fasteners that hold the panel in place.
   
10. Replace the power cord and power up your computer system.
