Did you touch the inside?

Tis a very careful procedure, if you just go in with your hands and stuff, you'll short circuit everything, and more than likely blow the mother board

Soz this sounds a bit serious, it might not be, but I'm told quite often when I get ideas about changing ram or whatever to not just jump into it
