The memory expansion of an asus notebook of the a2 series (a2500H) is not in the compartment on the bottom of the laptop which they mention in the manual. It is actually under the keyboard of the system. The compartment on the bottom contains a set of copper heatpipes and a passive CPU cooler. It is protected by a void warranty sticker on one of the screws.
So to avoid any problems with warranty:
To get to the correct compartment, take of the bezel above the keyboard by pushing it to the left, it it will not go easy! Break a nail or two, but it is possible. UPDATE: There is a small hole in the bezel, in which a pin can be pushed. By pushing in a pin, you unlock the bezel, and the removal will go easier!
Now you can lift the keyboard by shifting it up a few milimeter and than flip it over. In the middle is a compartment protected by a cover with two screws. Open the compartment, insert the memory and place the keyboard and bezel back at its location.

The bezel does slide back into place with a small click sound when it is pushed in place. The action of putting it back goes easier than removing it.Wednesday, January 18, 2006, 03:01 PM
If I push the bezel above the keyboard to the left will that unlock it so that i can take it off. Will it slide back into place after i take it off?
