which one is actually the primary slot? the one at the bottom or under the keyboard?
according to the guide, it's the one under the keyboard. but when i installed my 1x1 gb ram there, my notebook couldn't start. it works only after i moved the ram to the bottom slot.

The primary is under the keyboard..... but it doesn't matter what slot you put your ram in, they're both equal as far as the system is concerned.

Well, buying Kingston 533-1G so-dimms has beed easier as expected. Talked with Kingston service in Europe and said me this week they gonna receive an 533-1G stock to distribute in Spain. Contacted with internet reseller last thursday, ordered/payed friday, and tuesday morning arrived the 2 sticks...
Now... the "not-to-easy" part... assembling. Used to open/plug/unplug -assemble whatever- in desktop computer, but this is my first intervention in notebook.
I'll try first inserting the secundary, and if my heart rhythm allows it, i'll replace primary...
Hope Justin is near here...
(oops here is Spain, probably you ppl in the states&canada would be sleeping, or notebook-hardgaming now...)

Well... it's done.
The more difficult step was to disconnect and reconnect the "FPC" thingy whatever it was (a plastic band that connects keyboard and mainboard)...
Now, time to test super_pi in comparison with stock and... BF2 of course.
