This is a step-by-step guide for replacing the Random Access Memory (RAM) in an HP pavilion dv7-6178us laptop. The guide will show you where to look for the RAM and how to pull the RAM out. RAM replacement is a good idea because it speeds up the overall laptop performance. If you noticed your laptop performance is slowing down or your computer is freezing, then it is a sign that your laptop may need a RAM replacement or upgrade. As you install more programs, the laptop performance deteriorates. If you plan to do any video editing or play video games on it, then a RAM upgrade could enhance the performance of your computer for processing intensive applications.
