Turn the lock on the bottom of your macbook and pop out the battery. Under the battery you should be able to find the factory installed RAM with a simple locking mechanism that differs for each model, there should be picture instructions showing how to pop those old cards out and replace them with the new ones, exactly as they were arranged. There are probably 4 slots arranged like so:ABCDThe 2 new RAM sticks will work @ maximum potential in slots A and B (There might only be A and B anyway). ALSO BE SURE YOU ARE GROUNDED, don't do it on the carpet or else you'll completely fry your new RAM and/or hard drive to death with the static. Serious business. If you don't know how to ground yourself, look that up first. Turn the lock on the bottom of your macbook and pop out the battery.

Take the battery out. Look at the directions imprinted on the computer, underneath where the battery sits, that shows how to install memory. Follow the visual directions.Memory can only go in one way. That's why they are slotted. Don't touch the contacts with anything, especially your hands. Just pop out the old memory and push the new ones very gently in until it clicks in place. Check the visual directions imprinted on the computer to see that you did it correctly.

I used the geekylives link to pop in the new RAM, but the system still says 1 GB. I looked at the device drivers to see if there was a way to tell the computer to look for the extra memory, but I still haven't gotten it to recognize the extra ram, although the computer is working fine.

I do not believe the RAM can be upgraded. Not sure about any other hardware.

Could you personally upgrade the RAM? Only if you know how to do it and can solder. I wouldn't try it.

Sorry, but the memory in this machine is not upgradable. If you need 16GB, it must be ordered at the time of purchase. The RAM is surface mounted to the system board.
