Good morning/evening everyone, I attempted upgrading my RAM for the first time a week ago, but it didn’t go well. To put it simply, one of the plastic clips is damaged and the slot won’t secure properly. Fortunately, I already have 4GB installed, so my laptop still powers on. I’m looking for possible fixes—can the slot be replaced? Or are there any homemade solutions to keep the RAM in place? Thanks in advance for your advice.
