about installing ddr dimms

DDR DIMMs must be 184-pin unbuffered DDR SDRAM (double data rate
synchronous dynamic random access memory). The HP Pavilion ships with one
or more memory modules, but you can replace the existing memory modules
with higher-capacity ones. You can install 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB or 1024 MB
(1GB) memory modules in the PC.

NOTE:

Some memory configurations vary, depending on your PC model.

512 MB and 1024 MB DDR DIMM memory modules are not compatible with all
PC models.

removing a memory module

1 Remove the side panel

that has thumbscrews.
See page 101.

2 Gently lay the PC on

its side.

3 Locate the memory sockets

on the motherboard.

4 Move any cabling out of

the way, if necessary.

5 Push down the two

retaining clips on the ends
of the socket until the
memory module pops out
of the socket. Hold the
memory module by its
edges only, as you lift it
away from the socket. Store it in its antistatic packaging.

WARNING: Do not pull the memory module out of the socket. Use
the retaining clips to eject the module.
