Disable Onboard RAM Asus TP500LN Rev2.0

Archive .rar 153 KB Shared

RAR archive of 153 KB describing how to disable onboard RAM on the ASUS TP500LN, board revision 2.0. This modification is used when soldered memory fails, letting the laptop run from the SO-DIMM slot alone, typically by changing a strap resistor or the BIOS configuration. Check that the board is revision 2.0 before following the steps, since component positions differ between revisions. If the procedure involves a modified BIOS, dump and save the original SPI flash with a programmer before writing anything.
