Upgrading your VAIO computer
Installing a new memory module
If you are not familiar with upgrading memory on a computer, we highly recommend that you contact your
dealer.
To add or change a memory module, proceed as follows:
1
Shut down the computer, unplug it, and remove any peripheral devices. Wait for the computer to cool
down.
2
Open the unit (see Opening the side cover
3
Gently place the unit on its side. If necessary, remove any cable, add-on cards, or other components to
access the RIMM slots.
You must remove the power supply before installing the memory modules.
Remove the power supply by following these steps:
Remove the screw that secures the power supply to the rear of the
chassis.
Pull the tab that latches the power supply to the chassis.
Slide the power supply up until the power supply clears the chassis.
Rotate the power supply to an upside down position and rest it on top of the chassis where the hard
drive is located.
4
Remove the two Continuous Rambus Inline Memory Modules (CRIMM), which are already installed in the
far ends of each RIMM slot, as shown:
CRIMMS are installed in Bank 1 by default.
64MB RIMMS are installed in Bank Ø by default.
