To upgrade the memory on the notebook, follow the steps below:
1.
Power off the computer and remove the AC adapter and battery pack.
2.
Turn the notebook upside down with the base facing up. Locate the memory
compartment cover which is secured with two small retaining screws and remove
them. Inside you will find one memory expansion slot.
3.
Remove the extra SIMM module from its anti-static wrapping. Make sure that
you are properly grounded before handling the memory module. Hold the memory
module with its connector pointed towards the memory socket. Hold the module
at 60-degrees (see Figure 1-19) and gently connect it to the memory socket by
pushing it forward.
4.
Slowly push the module downwards until the locking tabs snap into the retaining
notches or holes at each corner edge of the module.

Replace the cover back and secure retaining screws.

Connect the AC adapter and replace battery pack.

Power on the notebook and notice the BIOS error message informing you that the
memory size stored in CMOS does not match the installed memory size. Press F2
to run the SETUP program and save the current CMOS settings. The computer
will automatically adjust the memory size to match the installed one.
