Upgrading the System Memory
Many applications will generally run faster when the computer’s
dynamic memory capacity is increased. The computer provides one
DDR memory socket, located underneath the System Device Cover.
You can increase the amount of memory by replacing the existing
one with a dual inline memory module (commonly known as DIMM)
of a higher capacity. The DIMM can be 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, or
1024MB in capacity. The DIMM is of type DDR SDRAM, has 200
pins and runs on 2.5V. The DIMM should be PC1600, PC2100, or
PC2700 compliant.
Warning:
Memory upgrade is a delicate process. Please observe the following
instructions carefully or have a qualified technician install it for you. Damages due to
mishandling of this procedure are NOT covered by the manufacture’s warranty.
Warning:
Changing memory while your computer is in suspend or power-saving
mode may cause permanent damage to the hardware. Make sure you turn off the
power and unplug the AC cord before proceeding with a memory upgrade.
Warning:
You should only use the DIMM module that is approved by the reseller
or the manufacturer; otherwise the system may become unstable.
