Removing Memory Module - Toshiba Portege M100 User Manual

Removing memory module

To remove the memory module, make sure the computer is in boot mode
then:
1. Turn the computer off and remove all cables connected to the
computer.
2. Turn the computer upside down and remove the battery pack (refer to
Chapter 6, Power and Power-Up Modes.)
3. Slide the display latch on the front of the computer to the right and
open the display panel.
4. Open the keyboard as described in the previous section and lift out
the insulator.
5. Push the latches to the outside to release the module. A spring will
force one end of the module up.
6. Grasp the sides of the module and pull it out, then replace the
insulator.
If you use the computer for a long time, the memory modules and the
circuits locating close to the memory modules will become hot. In this
case, let them cool to room temperature before you replace them. Or you
will get burnt if you touch any of them.
Do not touch the connectors on the memory module or on the computer.
Debris on the connectors may cause memory access problems.
