guarded sleeve.

CHECKING THE COMPUTER RECOGNITION
OF NEW MEMORY CAPACITY
Once you have changed the system memory capacity
by either adding or removing a memory upgrade
module, be sure to check that your LifeBook has
recognized the change.
You can check the memory capacity by looking at the
main menu of the BIOS setup:
1. Turn on the power to your LifeBook using the power
switch.
2. Allow the system to start booting and press the F2
key once the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. This
will open the main menu of the BIOS setup with the
current settings displayed.
(See BIOS Setup Utility on
page 31 for more information) Use the right arrow
key to select Info in the BIOS Setup menu.
The System Memory and the Extended Memory
capacity, as detected by your LifeBook during the Power
On Self Test (POST), are displayed at the bottom of the
Info menu screen. The chart below shows you the
possible displays that can be shown on the main menu
screen.
P O I N T
After changing your memory module configuration,
you must complete the Resetting the Hibernation
(Save-to-Disk) Parameters procedure in order for the
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode to operate properly
on your LifeBook.
(See Hibernation (Save-to-Disk)
Feature on page 34 for more information)
P O I N T
If the total memory displayed is incorrect, check that
your memory upgrade module is properly installed. (If
the module is properly installed and the capacity is still
not correctly recognized, see the Troubleshooting sec-
tion starting on page 65)
