    If the MSI BIOS will not let you change the Power Plan it means that their own software is meant to make the switch when you put the computer under load, having the notebook connected to and using the mains power still applies.

    An example of the spec of RAM that would have been more appropriate here

        Use the Crucial system scanner tool here if you purchase from them they guarantee compatibility or your money back.

          I already ordered the model the site recommended and filled out the return form for Kingston. Thanks for your help.

              The store says 5-8 days. The original purchase was in the same store and for the same reason that this particular model was the only 64 that was on the shelf.
