Replacing the Memory Modules
1. If you only have one memory module, install it in the socket labeled "DIMM A."
Install a second memory module in the socket labeled "DIMM B."
HINT:
Memory modules are keyed to fit into their sockets in only one direction.
2. Insert the memory-module edge connector into the socket slot at a 45-degree
angle and press the module firmly into the slot.
3. Pivot the module down until it clicks into place. If you do not hear a click,
remove the module and reinstall it.
4. Insert the metal tabs on the memory module/modem cover into the bottom
