How to replace or upgrade memory in Dell Latitude D830 notebook >> Inside my laptop
I don't think that your problem is related to RAM modules. If the laptop can see all RAM installed and starts properly, it means the
laptop and RAM work fine.
Could be software related problem.
Back up all personal data and try reinstalling Windows from scratch.

en2,
I have latitude 820 with 2gig (677)RAM i'm thinking about upgrade, there i find out that latitude 830 with 64bit OS
supports up to 8Gb RAM. The question is will it be the same with 820
According to specifications for Dell Latitude D820 laptop
(http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/latit/en/spec_latit_d820_en.pdf) you can install 4GB maximum.
With 64bit OS you should see and use all 4GB.

I have some problem with D830. In slot A theres a 2Gb. I´ll put a another 2Gb (or 1Gb) RAm into the Dimm B. The system starts
fine, the Bios setup recognize the new RAM, but in the WinXp prof there I get some problems. I can´t get to the controll panel, some
licences manager doenst work.
I changed also the DIMM A and put there 2 Gb of the same manufacture like the 1G bin DIMM B – no success. Who can help me?
Thanx Heiko

Thanks for this detailed "how-to". I watched a video on Dell's website, but being able to read it was easier to grasp.
I noticed one used indicated he dented his case trying to get the keyboard cover dislodged. I am concerned about that as well. Should
we use a plastic/carbon screw driver. I used to have a couple of those to keep from pinching bicycle tubes when changing a flat, but
have no idea where they are today.
Thanks again.

Thank you. Only saw 1 space for memory until I found this site.

I have 2 gig (667MHZ) in my machine now. I opened up the back and discovered that the DIMM B slot is empty which would mean
that I have one 2 gig DIMM in the DIMM A slot... when I ordered new memory from DELL they sent me two 2 gig (800MHz)
DIMMs and it appears that the 667MHz DIMMs are not longer available. The question I have is, How critical is it to be using tow
DIMMs rated at the same speed? Can I just install one of the new (800MHz) DIMMs into slot B and leave the (667MHz) DIMM in
slot A?
