Removing a SDRAM Module
(User-Replaceable)
The notebook has no system memory built into its motherboard, but has two slots for SDRAM
modules. One slot contains an SDRAM module that was factory installed.
Note
HP Pavilion ze5200, ze4200, ze4100, Compaq Evo Notebook N1050v and N1010v, and Presario
2500, 2100, and 1100 notebooks use only DDR266 SDRAM modules. Using the wrong type of
module prevents the notebook from booting.

the module through electrostatic discharge.
