Thank you for all your feedback...i will try the FCC at Mid Valley. By the way, supfreak, did you install it your self or the shop did it for you?

i know the folks thr... so we sorta did it together... heheh... quite a simple process... remove battery, loosen 3 screw... then flip the 2 stupid latch.. it'll pop the rams out... get rid of the old... pop in the new... it takes abit effort to pop it in... so use LOTS of strength... heheh... u know u screwed up if the machine doesnt boot... smile.gif

neeways, someone can do it for u if u dont wanna do it urself... go look for catherine... smile.gif

Hi Guys, i'm back. I have just upgraded my RAM to another 1Gb...so i now have 1.5Gb in my MacBook Pro. The RAM i upgraded is a Kingston DDR2 KVR667. Cost : RM320/- at LYP.

Tested it for a few days now...and i am running on basic apps like Office 2004 and the original MAC OS Tiger...no problem so far. I use my notebook for at least 6 hours continuously...and its fine.

Will update you guys if anything comes along.

Well, the shop did allow me to try out first and even waited for the machine to warm up as he says most of the time problem will occur when the machine is hot.

Well so far no problem as i am using the notebook almost 8 hours a day. The shop was Sri Computer at LYP and the ram i bought was Kingston 1Gb DDR2-667 CL5 SODIMM ...rm320.
