Title: Desktop Memory stick issue
Post by: Spalla on October 20, 2009, 05:22:17 PM

Hi,

If a memory stick is in its slot but the slot is unlocked is it possible the stick can come out by moving the computer? ALso does a memory stick need to be locked in in order to work?

Cheers,

Generally, if a memory stick can't be locked down it means it is not seated properly.

On my computer the ram is automatically locked in once it's in. So for me, if it's unlocked, the rams just sitting there wasting space.
