Expanding The Computer Memory - LG FK Series User Manual

6-5. Expanding the Computer Memory

You may expand the memory capacity, if needs be.
About Memory
This system uses a 240-pin memory module called Double Data Rate-2 (DDR-2),
not the old 184-pin memory module called Double Data Rate (DDR). The main
board can support maximum 2GB in memory.
Note
Windows 95, 98SE, and ME support maximum 512MB. Installing a memory with higher
capacity than 512MB may cause malfunctioning of the system.
Before Expanding the Memory
When disassembling the computer, wear gloves to protect internal parts of the
computer and slot cards from damage.
As the memory is sensitive to static electricity, be careful with the static electrici-
ty when removing or installing a memory.
Check the specifications of the current memory and the new memory before
expanding the memory.
Unlike SIMM, DIMM is of 64 bits. Therefore, single DIMM can function, and you
can add DIMM by one.
Note
When expanding the memory, add a memory with the same specification (DDR-2
SDRAM for 1.8V). (The shape of the memory may differ depending on the product
model.)
The DDR-2 memory provides greatly improved transmission rate than existing memo-
ries, and is differently shaped.
