Installing a memory module

Your computer is equipped with two memory slots which can
provide for various memory configurations.
Additional memory modules can be installed in the memory
expansion slots on the base of the computer. You will need a
standard Phillips No.1 screwdriver for this procedure.
If the computer is on, begin at step 1; otherwise, skip to step
3.
1 If the computer is on, click Start, Turn Off Computer.
The Turn off computer window appears.
2 Click Turn Off.
The operating system turns off the computer.
If you use the computer for a long time, the memory module
will become hot. If this happens, let the module cool to room
temperature before you replace it.
To avoid damaging the computer's screws, use a standard
Phillips No. 1 screwdriver that is in good condition.
Installing a memory module with the computer's power on may
damage the computer, the module, or both.
Before you install or remove a memory module, turn off the
computer using the Start menu. If you install or remove a
memory module while the computer is in Standby or
Hibernation mode, data will be lost.
