Check what memory you have in the laptop....most brands have a lifetime waranty now <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> so if its anything like kingston, twinmos, Adata etc.... they all lifetime. ( i know i havnt mentioned many brands.... for lack of being able to think through this many pain killers (slipped a disk in my back), but MOST brands are covered.
