9.1 Installing and Removing Memory
The first number in the parentheses on the first line of the display shows
the total amount of memory in your workstation. The lines beginning
with
mem
show the amount of memory installed in each memory slot. If
the display does not list the correct amount of memory, check to make
sure that the correct memory modules are installed in the system unit in
consecutive slots. If the correct modules are installed, turn to Chapter 11
for troubleshooting instructions.
9.1.3 To Remove Memory Modules
Follow these rules when you remove memory modules:
• Remove memory modules from one memory slot at a time, always starting
with the highest-numbered slot.
• Do not leave an empty slot between memory modules.
• Be sure you have at least 16 megabytes of memory to operate your
workstation.
To remove memory modules:
1. Follow the instructions that came with your worksystem software to shut
down the software.
2. Turn off the system unit by pressing the O on the On/Off switch on the
back of the unit. Then unplug the system unit power cord.
Caution
Allow the unit to cool down several minutes before touching any
internal parts, as the parts could be hot.
3. Remove the cover from the system unit (see Section 8.3.1).
4. Use the antistatic wrist strap.
5. Locate the metal bracket that locks the memory modules in place (see
Figure 9–4). Loosen the two screws on the bracket until the bracket can be
pulled away from the system unit.
