First remove keyboard by depressing marked tabs. (Three)

Both Keyboard and touchpad have a ribbon cable connector. move the sliders forward to release the ribbon cables .Be careful not to damage and avoid using force to pull back the ribbons.They must gently give way.If not, means you couldn’t release the slider properly.

Unscrew all the red circled screws at the top metal plate.

Do that also to the bottom cover.Don’t worry to mix them they are all same size.

Now separate top cover from bottom one.You can do it by using your finger nails. Don’t use force and go systematically all around the perimeter as shown.

Now you should see the motherboard. Before lifting it up or ideally taking it out for any mod job you have to disconnect all the JST connectors pointed by red arrows.

Don’t forget to take out the rubber fill in the unused  modem port as this can resist when you try to lift the board.

There are two tabs under the touchpad area as can be seen.these needs to be pushed back while lifting.

When lifting the mother board be careful not to use force and bend it.

Also easy on the audio jacks and VGA connector.It needs a careful navigation between them while lifting.

After lifted, you will be able to see the RAM. Now just upgrade the RAM and close everything again.

(If you don't know how to upgrade the RAM refer to the first video.)
