7.
Pivot the SO-DIMM until it snaps into place.
Make sure that the card is firmly fixed in the slot and does not move
easily.
8.
Replace the memory slot cover over the memory slot, aligning the back
side of the cover first; then tighten the screw.
Attention:
When you have added or upgraded a memory card, do not
use your computer until you have closed the memory slot cover. Never
use the computer with the cover open.
9.
Put the battery pack in place and turn the computer over again.
To make sure that the SO-DIMM is installed correctly, do as follows:
1.
Turn the computer on.
2.
While the “To interrupt normal startup, press the blue Access IBM button”
message is displayed at the lower-left area of the screen, press the Access
IBM button.. The Access IBM Predesktop Area appears on the screen. (If
you have deleted the service partition of the hard disk drive, or replaced
the hard disk drive itself, the Access IBM does not appear. Refer to the
“Note” below.) Next, double-click the “Start setup utility” icon. The IBM
BIOS Setup Utility screen appears. The “Installed memory” item shows the
total amount of memory installed in your computer. For example, if you
install a 256 MB SO-DIMM into a computer whose built-in memory is 256
MB, the quantity shown in “Installed memory” should be 512 MB.
Note:
If the “Startup Interrupt Menu” appears instead of the “Access IBM
Predesktop Area”, press F1 key to enter the “IBM BIOS Setup
Utility”.
