Dell Inspiron 630m Memory Upgrade Procedure

Been using my laptop for a while now and the speed is getting slower each day. I doubt it’s due to the aging process (TM) but rather the advances of technology. I am planning to get one in to somehow hope for some improvement. But the max I could get is only an additional 1Gb and that would cost me near to 300RM. That would makes up about 1/7 to replace the whole set. But money doesn’t come easy for me so I still stick with my plan.

While enquiring for the item through dell customer service line, it’s a breeze to get them, they are asking me if I need a qualified dell’s technician to fix it for me which would cost additional 168RM. As I am a stingypoor guy, I am opting to install it myself. But the usual question arise, how? I am not a system admin/engineer myself, tho I did touch a little on the hardware of a PC, but this time it will be a laptop which obviously a different box altogether. So the kind cust. service officer asked me to visit a website, where you key in the tag and those related sites will be displayed. And after ending the call, I went to find it but sadly, I got an invalid service tag error instead. I was expecting for manuals! So I scout around, found this cool article
How do I identify and upgrade the memory on my Dell™ Computer?. Hey, I thought I found it but after following the step by step procedure, I still dont get my manuals.

Then, my usual instinct guides me to google and hope for some positive result. Viola! Dell Inspiron™ 630m Service Manual is all there hosted and accessible! Too good to be true, they even provided pictures to guide you in the process. Awesome! I still give my trust to Dell, literally.

And, and, there’s this page “View the system information for a particular service tag” that allows you to retrieve information about your system hardware information. Love-ly!

Wait, I think I’ve just promoted Dell and NO, I am not getting paid for this. I am just a fans of Dell.

:P
