I have a new AN517-54-79L1 laptop I want to upgrade the memory to 32Gb.  I can't figure out how to open up the computer.  I have removed all 12 screws from the bottom but can't figure out how to get it apart.  Any ideas.

    Hi,
    Follow the method in the video, you can use either a guitar pick or an old credit card to release the tabs.

    This solved my problem. Thank you very much.  I didn't get an email about your post.  Is that something that needs to be fixed?  I also don't see the need for both tabs and screws.
  • Although you have already solved the problem, these two videos are for the AN517-54 model:

    For the AN517-54-79L1that comes with 16GB of RAM; does anyone know if it contains one 16GB strip or two 8GB strips. So for an upgrade to 32GB would I need 2 - 16GB strips or just one?
