The title says it all. I opened the laptop case but cannot find the 2nd ram slot.

 

Task Manager, CPU-Z, and other websites all indicate I have another unused ram slot... where is it???

 

Please help, thanks in advance

I really don't know why then, cause multiple programs say I have 2 slots... That's fine, thanks for the help.
