Installing additional memory (optional)
Before you install or remove a memory module, turn off the
computer using the Start menu. If you install or remove a
memory module while the computer is in Stand by or
Hibernation mode, data will be lost.
Your computer comes with enough memory to run most of
today’s popular applications. You may want to increase the
computer’s memory if you use complex software or process
large amounts of data.
Additional memory comes in various capacities (to stay
current on the most recent software and hardware options for
your computer, and for other product information, be sure to
regularly check the Toshiba Web site at
accessories.toshiba.com ). There are two memory slots. Your
system may have both slots occupied.
If you use the computer for a long time, the memory modules
become hot. If this happens, let the memory modules cool to
room temperature before you replace them.
You need a standard Phillips no.1 screwdriver for this
procedure.
To avoid damaging the computer’s screws, use a standard
Phillips no. 1 screwdriver that is in good condition.
