i bet it something to do with microsoft not waiting more then 3gb of ram working,so we cant get vista to run smooth,i could be wrong but i bet it is at least 1 reason,good video tho man,very nice explained ,showing all the dodgy moments people normally trip up on,kudos to you!

the aspire one only supports 1.5gb of ram max because of the chipset used

[essenpeppone1509]

is 1536mb ram max.?

[zaperbaby]

yep 512mb on board ram and 1024mb ddr2 sodimm = 1536mb

wish acer would have put 1gb on board ram but they didn't :( if they would have put 1gb on board you could have put 2gb ram 2048mb

Hello, i just installed the RAM and i when i boot the laptop i get the error: no bootable device insert boot disc and press any key. WHY? can some one please help me.

[zaperbaby]

my guess is you unplugged the hd or ssd drive you will have to take it apart again and check the hd or ssd is connected properly.

Thank you for the Reassembling Video! Did you count how many times you said "Basically"? I didn't, but its a lot! Also too I broke my keyboard clips putting it back together, i used double sided tape to fix the key panel back to the main metal shield, it works great!

Just upgraded my RAM with no problems! I've never done anything like this before. Had a look at a few videos before I tackled it but yours is the best, thanks!

Thanks for your video, the focus is crisp and the annotated screenshots diagrams for the screws was all I needed ^^;

btw: what's your webcam model ?

I've got an Acer AspireOne 522. I followed the steps and managed to replace the 1gb RAM to a DDR3 1066MHz 2gb SODMM RAM...BUT when I inserted the battery and turned the unit on the monitor refused to come on. The notebook turned on but the monitor never did. What could be causing this problem? I would really appreciate someones feedback on this asap. Thanks!

i have the same one......so if i replace my ram for an 1gb when i turn it on i will have 1.5????

because i try one time and when i remove my ram i saw that it was a 512 and when i put a 2 gb ram my acer couldnt go on for about 20 minutes and then when it did go on i found that have been lost the bios......

Cheers mate, this video helped me upgrade the memory in 20 min. Now it runs very nice. Keep up the good work.

[ElfGhalleon]

Great video. I would say this is the best disassembly/ memory tutorial upgrade for the aspire one.
