Installing/Removing a DIMM Module

There is one DIMM slot in your Tablet PC and 256MB on the motherboard. 256MB and 512MB modules are
available, so you can install a combination of up to 768MB in the system.

DIMM replacement should only be performed at a static-free workstation. Avoid touching connector pins,
circuit boards, or other circuit components on the drive or Tablet PC. Electrostatic discharge caused by doing
so can damage sensitive components.

Installing a Memory Module

To install a DIMM module in the Tablet PC:
1. Ensure that the Tablet PC is off. To do so, carry out the Shut Down command in the Start menu. (Do not attempt
to remove or install a DIMM module when the system is in Suspend mode or running.)
2. Remove the two screws from the cover plate on the back of the Tablet PC and remove the cover plate as shown in
Figure 6-2.
3. Insert the DIMM module in the socket at an angle and push it down until it locks into place as shown in Figure
6-3. Note that the DIMM module is keyed to prevent it from being inserted backwards.
4. Reinstall the cover and screws that you removed in step 2.
5. Confirm that the DIMM module is recognized by the system. To do so, run BIOS Setup. The size of the DIMM
module should be displayed in the Info menu in BIOS Setup.
The DIMM module is installed in the Tablet PC and you can now use the system.
