Memory expansion
You can install additional memory in the computer’s memory module
socket to increase the amount of RAM.
A 64 MB or 128 MB memory module is preinstalled in slot A. You can
install an expansion memory module in slot B; however, you cannot
operate the computer with a module installed in slot B only.
Only memory modules with the following parts numbers can be installed:
PA3004U-1M06:
64 MB
PA3005U-1M12: 128 MB
Memory modules designed for earlier model computers can be physically
installed, but they will not work. In this case, a warning beep will sound for
one second and the computer will hang up. The following message will
also be displayed: Please remove the incompatible memory
module in Slot X
(X represents A or B). Remove the memory module
if it is not listed above. Also, refer to Chapter 9, Troubleshooting .
