How To Install & Upgrade RAM Memory In HP Red Laptop - Step By Step Tutorial

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video I show you how to install and upgrade DDR4 RAM Memory In A HP Laptop. This HP Laptop I got from Walmart and came with 4GB of RAM Memory and I have been wanting to upgrade it for a while. I chose a PNY Memory that is 16GB and 3200Mhz. The model number on this laptop is 15-dw0081wm and is part of the HP 15-dw0000 series laptops from HP. I show you step by step how to take the bottom of the laptop off, how to remove the old RAM memory, how to install the new RAM memory, and how to reinstall the bottom of the HP laptop. I then show you how to verify that the memory installed correctly on the computer. I have other videos about this laptop and how to check the RAM memory in the computer that I will link in a playlist at the end of this video, if you are interested and have time please check that playlist out. Thanks for watching!

    i am not even close to being computer technical but with you video i watched and went step by step and so happy to DIY. my only problem was when i opened it up i realized it was only one slot for the Ram. i needed to have the one piece of 16gb instead of the 8x2 Gb kit. i didn’t even feel bad because i knew i could exchange out on amazon and go back thru with steps from your video. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this video.

    Thank you , Todd. I have a similar-type HP laptop (model 17-g119dx) - about 7 years old - but did not see any obvious way to access the RAM (a door or port). Your video answers the query on how to access the innards, so I'll give it a shot. I had a local store upgrade the RAM from 4GB to 8 a few years ago, but would like to upgrade to 16 (the max this model can hold). The laptop runs the components of an observatory (mount, cameras, focusers, etc.), so every bit of RAM will help, I think. Thanks again for a very well-done and easily-explained video. - Steve

    I am assuming if you replace the ram the laptop has to fully reset to get used to the ram but then eventually it should just work also check if you got the correct memory.

    It can run some early games that don't take a lot of ram. Mine is 4GB and it can play a beefy old game like Sims 3 with no problem for ex. If it's an older game, it likely works since that means it was made for non-powerful computers at the time.

    The laptop used in the video only has one ram slot. Usually, newer model laptop havr 2 so to add a 2nd ram you should have the same ram generation as the current ram installed in your laptop (if the installed one is ddr3 you should buy another ddr3 for expansion) but i recommend to replace the older generation ram and buy 2 newer ones like ddr5 or ddr4
