[MLG_No_Scope]

you means the thing on the sides of the ram slots?

 

[reedo_43]

If they do not exist, they were not meant to be there.

 

[reza.sh202]

no they were brocken. one side of ram slot has that bracket but another side not.

 

[reedo_43]

Do you mean the clips that locks in the ram?

 

[reza.sh202]

yes

 

[reedo_43]

The ram will more than likely stay in without the clips. That would be a tough fix.

anybody else?

Try rummaging through the scrap motherboards at some local computer repair shops. When you find one with a similar clip on the DIMM socket, work it off and then you got one.

Otherwise: try an electronic component supply house. You'll have to buy an entire DIMM socket to get the clip.
