Upgrading your Notebook’s Memory
S
Did you know... Memory is a volatile media also known as
RAM (Random Access Memory). Your Notebook uses memory as
a scratch pad for all of its internal processes. When your
Notebook is turned off, the contents of its memory are lost.
To avoid losing information that is temporarily stored in your
Notebook’s memory, always save your work often to non-volatile
media, such as a floppy or your Notebook’s hard drive.
You can easily upgrade your Notebook’s memory to take full
advantage of the latest applications and games. Your Notebook
can be upgraded to 384 MB of memory using PC 133 memory
modules, available from any Compaq retailer.
Ä
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage many electronic
components, including memory upgrade modules. Ensure that you
are suitably grounded before upgrading your Notebook’s memory.
To upgrade your Notebook’s memory, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that you have the memory upgrade available.
2. Turn off your Notebook and disconnect the AC adapter.
