Chapter 4 Upgrading Your Computer
Installing a memory module (DIMM) into the system
To install the DIMM under the System Device Cover, do the following:
1.
Power OFF the notebook. Unplug the AC cord and all cables/devices attached to the notebook.
Remove the battery.
2.
Place your hand on a large metal object momentarily to discharge any static electricity. Place the
notebook on a flat surface and fully close the LCD lid.
3.
Locate and remove 7 Screw A’s on the System Device Cover.
4.
Remove the System Device Cover. The DIMM socket is now seen as shown below.
5.
If you need to remove an old DIMM from the socket, press out on the latches located on both
edges of the socket at the same time. The DIMM should pop up to an angle of 30 degree (see diagram
below). Pull the DIMM module out of the memory socket. Store away the DIMM for future use.
