How to upgrade to 8GB on Aspire XC-603

Hello Chris,

Your desktop supports up to 8Gb (2x4Gb).

Does your motherboard look like this one?

Hi, no doesn't look like that

I guess I can upload a photo if you need it - I thought you might be able to tell from the S/N

Thanks for the quick reply

Looks like this:-

Sorry I made a mistake. Your part number of your motheboard is DB.SUL11.002

I don't find a good picture of this one.

"I guess I can upload a photo if you need it": Yes I'd like.

Edited to correct crucial link

Hi,, I posted a link to what looks like the same m/b on ebay

Yes thanks I ordered from that link (Crucial). Crucial cust service say there is one double socket to take 2 DRAM units. I can't see it is in fact a double socket and it'd be helpful for Acer to affirm

I edited the crucial link. I had previously given you the wrong one sorry.

Edit: The ur17 takes same memory as ub17. no worries.. I just need glasses.

Hi

I used this link

because the Acer executable used to find out S/N and system showed just XC-603.

Anyway one of the memory modules will fit (I already received from Crucial)

Just won't accept 2 in the same slot

Thanks

@chrise99: You haven't two black slots?

Hi, yes 2 slots - as I explained in original post it won't take the memory module - wrong clip - and slit is in wrong place (this is the one to the right of the fan on the ebay link I posted. Plus crucial instructions say the slot above fhe fan in that photo should accept 2.

(ps I can't see the install instructions in the link you posted)

I'm going to let laurent help you (like I should have in the first place) . My reading comprehension is challenged today!

@chrise99: Post here a photo. A picture is better than a long speech.
