Adding Memory
You can increase your computer memory by installing memory modules on
the system board. See "Specifications" on page 90 for information on the
memory supported by your computer. Be sure to add only memory modules
that are intended for your computer.
HINT: Memory modules
purchased from Dell are
covered under your
computer warranty.
CAUTION: Before working inside your computer, read the "When
Working Inside Your Computer" on page 14.

the computer (see page 37).

Remove any installed PC Cards.

Remove the installed battery, and disconnect the AC adapter cable
and any external devices from the computer. Wait 5 seconds before

Ground yourself by touching a metal connector on the back of the
computer, and continue to do so periodically during this procedure.
NOTICE: While you work, periodically touch unpainted metal on the
computer to dissipate static electricity that might harm internal components.
