CHECKING THE MEMORY
CAPACITY
Once you have changed the system memory
capacity by either adding or removing a memory
upgrade module, be sure to check that your
notebook has recognized the change.
Your LifeBook S2000 notebook is designed to
share system memory with video memory, using
Unified Memory Architecture (UMA) technology.
UMA allows you to select the amount of memory
you want to devote to video. The factory-set
default is 16 MB, but you can select 16 MB, 32
MB, 64 MB or 128 MB to be used as video
memory. As a result, the amount of memory that
appears on your screen is reduced by the amount
of UMA that you have allocated to video memory.

You can check the memory capacity by clicking
[Start] -> Control Panel, then double-clicking the
System icon. Select the General tab and check
the amount of memory under "Computer:".
For example, if 16 MB is dedicated to video
memory, and the system has 256 MB of RAM
installed, the display will indicate that there is 240
MB of RAM installed.
If the total memory displayed is incorrect,
check that your memory upgrade module is
properly installed. (If the module is properly
installed and the capacity is still not correctly
recognized, see Troubleshooting.)
