This chapter explains how to enhance the capabilities of your computer by
adding additional memory.
Note: There are two chassis types, Minitower, and Low-Profile. Where the
differences in the chassis types are significant both chassis types will be
illustrated; where there is no significant difference, a single type will be
shown.

Adding memory

Your computer's random-access memory (RAM) can be increased. Memory is
increased by installing or replacing memory modules. The computer uses
DIMMs, or dual in-line memory modules for RAM. Make sure that the memory
modules you purchase are compatible with your computer. See Appendix B,
Technical Information, on page 107 for technical specifications.

Required tools

A small regular (slot-head) screwdriver or a small coin
A small Phillips-head screwdriver

Removing the cover

Installing RAM requires that you remove the computer's cover. The cover is
designed for easy removal.
CAUTION: If you are not proficient with electronic equipment, Power
Computing Corporation recommends that you have a certified technician
install RAM. If you attempt to install RAM yourself, any damage you may
cause to your equipment will not be covered by the limited warranty on
your computer. Please call technical support at 1-800-708-6227 for
additional information about this or any other warranty question.
