Memory upgrade

Memory is expandable to 2 GB, employing 128/256/512 MB industry
standard soDIMMs (Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Modules). The
computer supports DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM (Synchronous
Dynamic Random Access Memory).

There are two memory slots on your computer, one of which is
occupied by the standard memory. You can upgrade memory by
installing a memory module into the available slot, or replacing the
standard memory with a higher-capacity memory module.

Installing memory

Follow these steps to install memory:

1

Turn off the computer, unplug the AC adapter (if connected) and
remove the battery pack. Then turn the computer over to access its
base.

2

Remove the screw from the memory cover (a); then lift up and
remove the memory cover (b).
