chapter 4 upgrading your computer

Upgrading the System Memory

Many applications will generally run faster when the computer’s

dynamic memory capacity is increased. The computer provides two

DDR memory sockets, located underneath the System Device

Cover. You can increase the amount of memory by replacing the

existing one with a dual inline memory module (commonly known

as SO-DIMM) of a higher capacity. The SO-DIMM can be 128MB,

256MB, or 512MB in capacity. The SO-DIMM is of type DDR

SDRAM.The SO-DIMM should PC3200 and PC4200 compliant.

Warning:

Memory upgrade is a delicate process. Please observe the following

instructions carefully or have a qualified technician install it for you. Damages due to

mishandling of this procedure are NOT covered by the manufacture’s warranty.

Warning:

Changing memory while your computer is in suspend or power-saving

mode may cause permanent damage to the hardware. Make sure you turn off the

power and unplug the AC cord before proceeding with a memory upgrade.

Warning:

You should only use the DIMM module that is approved by the reseller

or the manufacturer; otherwise the system may become unstable.
