7 On the HP Kayak XA Series 0503 and 0541 PC Workstation, a single
processor system has been upgraded to a dual processor system. Is it
necessary to install a VRM?
c The HP Kayak XA Series 0503 and 0541 have only one processor slot,
and the VRM is built into the system board. Therefore, it is not
possible to upgrade to a dual processor system nor install a VRM.
8 To run the MaxiLife diagnostics program, does the computer need to
be powered on?
a No, it doesn't. As long as a power cable is connected, HP MaxiLife can
be started, and the diagnostics program run to check the various
system components.
9 Can I upgrade a Matrox Millennium G200 video board using SGRAM
memory modules?
a Yes, you can. There is a total of 8 MB of installed SGRAM video
memory on the video board, which can be upgraded to 16 MB by
adding a 8 MB (2 x 4 MB) SO_DIMM SGRAM memory module
accessory (this is not an HP accessory).
10 Before installing or replacing a component, do I need to use a wrist
strap and ESD mat?
a Yes, you do. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage processors,
memory, hard disk drives, accessory boards and other components.
The ESD package is conductive and is easy to recognize from its label. Do
not take the new component out of its ESD package before connecting
your wrist strap and ESD mat to a suitable earthed point. Also, do not
forget to use the ESD package provided with the new part to return the
old one.
