Does anyone have a guide and / or pictures explaining how to get to the extra ram slots under the keyboard for the above laptop?

It's probably not as difficult as it sounds, but I'd hate to miss a screw and snap something important!

Thank you.

No-one answered so I'll answer myself in case anyone else has the same issue...

It's just snapped in place. I took a credit card and inserted it in between the keyboard and the computer at the spacebar, then just started moving it left to right carefully lifting it as I moved. The bottom of the keyboard is covered by foil, so use caution not to tear it. Once you get the keyboard snapped out, lift it out slowly because it has two belts attached to it. There is a clear piece of plastic covering the ram. Lift it off and add the new ram. Replace the clear plastic and snap the keyboard back in place. A note of caution, the keyboard is sort of thin so be gentle when pullin up on it.
