How to install memory or RAM to your desktop pc?
To install the memory or RAM in a desktop PC, follow these general steps:-
1. Shut down Windows, turn off your PC, and disconnect all the cables.
2. Put your PC on a table or other suitable surface.
3. Open the side opposite the motherboard. For example, you may need to
undo a latch, unscrew a couple of thumb-screws (the knurled kind you turn
with your fingers), or unscrew case screws with a screwdriver.
4. Touch a metal part of the PC’s case to discharge any static from your body.

5. If you need to remove one of the existing memory modules:
• Lay down a sheet of paper or an antistatic bag (the kind computer components come in) so that you have somewhere to put the module.
• Press down and out with a thumb on each of the spring clips at the ends of the socket, as shown in Figure 1-3. When the clips release, they push the memory module up and out.
• Remove the module using your fingers, and then put it on the bag or
sheet of paper. Avoid touching the contacts on the module—they’re
sensitive.
6. Insert the new memory module:-
• Remove the memory module from its protective bag.
• Align the memory module with the memory slot, making sure the notch
in the module matches the break in the socket, as shown in Figure 1-4.
• Press the memory module down gently but firmly, so that it slides into
the socket and the spring clips engage.
7. Close the PC, restore it to its normal place, and then reconnect the cables.
