There is a small door on the bottom that you open with a screw driver. The memory slots are right inside. Each chip (looks more like a small data card than a chip) is held in by two clamps that you release with your fingers, and it will pop out. You take the new chips, push them in to the slots until they click in to place, and put the door back on and secure with the screw driver. Very simple.
