To remove a RAM expansion module

You may want to remove a RAM module so you can install a larger one. You'll need a
small Phillips screwdriver for these steps.
Your OmniBook's computer chips are extremely static-sensitive. Static electricity
can permanently damage computer chips. Handle the RAM module only by its
edges. Before installing the memory module, discharge your body's static
electricity by touching the metal shielding around the connectors on the rear of the
OmniBook.
1. From the Start menu, shut down the OmniBook.
2. Important. Unplug the ac adapter, if present, and remove the battery.
3. Open the RAM compartment by removing the keyboard (described in the previous
topic).
4. Release the two latches at the sides of the RAM board. Push them outward and away
from the sides of the board. When you release both latches, the free edge of the board
pops up.
5. Pull the board out of the connector. You can install a new board if you want.
6. Close the RAM compartment as described in the previous topic.
7. Insert the battery and slide its front panel to the left.
