Can't undo the fucking screws on the under side of my laptop. Not because i'm weak, I most certainly am not.
I just wanna check if any more RAM can be installed. Is there any other way to check?

Other than the battery, I don't see anything else that could be slid out.

There might be screws hidden under stickers or something, feel around the stickers for an indent. Or, use a small screwdriver because on computers, sometimes the screws go way deeper then bigger normal screwdrivers can fit in.

| No, I mean it's physical impossible for me to turn the screws because they have been drilled in so tightly. I just wanted to know if there was another way I could check for free RAM slots.

Usually older laptops don't have space for another RAM, which is reasonable, since laptops are smaller. But newer ones have 2 slots. And I'm sure if you used a drill, the screws can un-lock unless they have been stripped. Check Google for a program to find to see if RAM is available, I'm trying that right now.

simply look up your model on your manufacturers site and it should give you the specs which will tell you what you need to know. Though obviously even if you get the info if you wanted to upgrade you couldn't as you cannot get the screws unscrewed. If you still have your warrenty you can send your laptop in and they will upgrade it for you(you still have to pay for the upgraded ram).

Use an app like Everest Diagnostics or Sisoft Sandra.
This will reveal at least a summary (<- trial version limitations) of your PC info, including what DIMM's are free etc..
