NOTE: Tested under a Fedora Linux system. 1) You'll need to use a laptop RAM stick that's the closest (in specs) to what your motherboard may accept in desktop RAM in order for it to work. 2) There is a DIP switch which you have to setup according to the last 4 digits in your laptop ramstick serial number. I've had a crucial module which had "1339" as it's last digits so the DIP switch was setup to 1, 3, 4 ON and 2 OFF. (1, 3, we ignore the next 3 because we've already set up one "3" and then we have a 9 but the DIP switch has only settings up to 4 so we'll use that as our last digit). 3) If you're going to use desktop RAM alongside these adapters, try to use one that's the same clockspeed of your laptop ram stick, this is because the adapter will underclock both RAM's to the lowest common denominator between them. 4) Place the adapter in the socket that's the closest to the CPU for better performance. 5) Reset your BIOS to it's factory settings and boot the computer with the adapter inside.
Finally, after all these steps the adapter should work as expected and you'll have your laptop RAM working in your system. If you like to overclock RAM, don't expect a big bump with these, my 1333Mhz modules (laptop & desktop) only OC'ed to 1386Mhz without the system crashing with the adapter... (without the adapter, the desktop stick was able to overclock up to 1600Mhz) Keeping that in mind, restore your BIOS custom settings after testing the adapter properly via a memtest86+ and casual usage.
