you need an empty memory slot then look at the key way on board should be two notches at unequal length to prevent you putting it in backwards Aline the key way push down until the little clips (ears) lock in place. Do this with power off but plugged in so it has a ground on chassis and make sure you ground yourself to chassis before handling the memory stick so you don't have a static charge that could damage or ruin the memory stick merely by touching it.
I would not recommend the cold facet as noted above unless tyou are changing it by the sink even if you ground your charge, just walking a few steps expecially on a carpet could build your charge backup.

There is only one way, which is the best. Open it up, you will see either 2 or 4 transverse slots near the processor with black clips on each end. open these clips outwards and offer up the RAM into the slot, being careful to get it the right way round. When it is in position, push it home until the black clips snap inwards, you have now installed new RAM!
Be careful touching it, do not touch the gold contacts, before you touch anything, go and touch the cold tap in your kitchen to earth yourself. Static electricity is the enemy of electronics.

Make sure the 2 little clips at the ends of the slot(s) are open, and push it straightly in. The clips should close by themselves when you push down. Give them a final click though if needed. Do it straight, and with even pressure! Don't put yer paws all over the circuits and chips! Touch some grounded metal object first to kill any static. Easy!

You first go to manufacturer website and determine the correct type of memory for your computer. Then, power down your computer, wash your hands, take the cover off and insert your memory. Put the cover back on and power up. You are done.

There's no best way.. there is an "only" way. You first have to determine what kind of memory your computer uses. Go to Kingston and use their memory search feature to find out what kind of memory your system uses. http://kingston.com/ check your manual for instructions on how to install memory.
But it sounds like you have little or no experience in this. I would suggest taking your system in and pay a small fee to have the geek squad at best buy install it for you.

Erm, the only way - which is to open up the case and slot it in one of the (hopefully) spare ram slots.

You put the ram card in the slot provided.

There is only one way to install ram: open up your case and install it in an empty memory slot, if there is any.
