Genius Bar broke my RAM Slot

My computer knew some problems turning on and I took it to the genius bar. They went through my MacBook as there are of course many causes possible so I went to pick up another day, when they were performed. I have just return and everything works well except the RAM. I had 8 GB installed and registered only 4 GB. After rotation autour and only use a stick at a time I have diagnosed the issue as the least RAM slot is the problem. I want to know what I have to do? Is it a simple fix I can do (or try) or I need to resume and explain?

I expect that you will need to make an appointment with the Genius Bar, because apparently you have diagnosed the cause:

  • Genius Bar refuses to fix ios

    Since I ordered my iPhone of fourteen months 5s, it crashes constantly and its ID to touch has stopped working. The genius bar (Bridgewater, NJ) says it is due to a hardware problem in the phone and he wants me to buy a new phone.

    I am appalled that a working phone perfectly was bricked by update, and the genius bar wouldn't fix. How can I get this problem? Indications will be welcome. Thank you!

    When have you applied this 'update'?

  • Satellite L650 - 12 P - how many RAM slots is free?

    Hello

    Thinking about buying a TOSHIBA Satellite L650-12 P, which comes with 2 GB of pre-installed RAM. I know that you can add extra RAM in the laptop and I was wondering just how many slots were free on the motherboard?

    EDIT: Just to clarify something, he expressed the crucial site for this laptop model:

    Chipset: Intel HM55
    Drive form factor: 2.5 "
    Drive Interface: SATA
    Maximum memory: 8192MB
    Slots: 2 (2 blocks of 1)
    Standard memory: 2048MB removable
    Support for USB: compliant 2.x
    Although the memory can be installed a module at the same time, the best performance comes from the use by pairs of modules

    Do not really understand that, but can help.

    Hello

    There are two RAM slots and a slot is empty. In another location, you can find a module 2GB DDR3 1066 MHz (PC3-8500) RAM.

    If you need to update the RAM, then I suggest you buy an exactly the same module

  • Satellite U200 163: where can I find the RAM slots?

    Where can I find the RAM slots?

    Hello

    As much as I know there is no RAM Bay at the bottom of the unit and it is so just only one possible place to the RAM slots
    Slots seem to be hidden under the keyboard.

    In order to get access to the RAM, you will need to remove the keyboard.
    Usually, it is not very difficult but if you have no experience with this dismantling then you should ask a technician for assistance.

    But here's a few details;
    Keyboard is fixed with 2 screws. They are hidden under the cover of thin plastic under the line of F1 to F12 key.
    Remove the plastic cover, remove the screws, then you could remove the keyboard take note; the keyboard is connected to the motherboard with the flat cable.

    So don't use force!

  • Satellite 1800-100 - is RAM slot B broken?

    Due to the poor system performance 256 MB of RAM to put in with the the laptop 128 MB, I bought came with. When I opened the hood to the RAM slots I realized that the two slots were already in use. I got my brother's cell phone and he told me that he had bought 256 MB, a few years back and he says they worked and the laptop ran with 384 MB.

    The laptop has an A slot and a slot B. When I put all 3 Rams (128,256,256) into A slot they are recognized by the BIOS and notebooks works very well. However, if I put one of them in the slot B I turn on the laptop and noting happens, I can´t even not to enter the BIOS.

    When I put 2x256MB (A and B) the laptop only works with 256 MB. So I guess the slot B is somehow broken? This hypothesis is correct? How do I go about solving this problem?

    Thank you for a ton for all the comments / responses

    Hello

    Yes it looks like there is a faulty RAM slot. This doesn't happen often, but sometimes I read about sound.
    There is no way to fix it. The only way I know is to exchange the complete motherboard. Maybe you can get a second hand motherboard from eBay.

    Good luck!

  • Thinkpad R60 ram slot problem

    Hello

    I have 2 x 1 GB (same type) and 1x512mo (another manufacturer) ram sticks. With all the seperatelly put into the lower slot laptop works very well. If I put in 2x1gb I get 4 beeps and no boot, if I put 1 gb + 512 mb, I get a black screen with no beeps. If I put no stick in the top slot I get 4 beeps. If I don't put no Rams I get 1-3-3-1. I tried to apply pressure on the slot - even 4 beeps with 2x1GB. I use the latest version of the bios with the default settings.

    Looks like the top slot is defective. Is it possible to fix it? Thank you.

    You may need to get a new motherboard. It is the only way to fix it. Perhaps check on ebay or forum.thinkpads.com.

    Also check that there is no dust in the upper ram slot.
