Chapter 4 Expansion of the system
Replacing the Main Memory
There may come a time when you want to expand the main memory capacity. When expanding the main memory, make
sure that the specifications of any newly replaced memory currently installed memory are the same. The following
instructions are provided to those who are familiar with system assembly/disassembly in order to help them to find the
memory specification. If you are not familiar with system assembly/disassembly or do not know your memory
specification, you should not perform the memory upgrade. Please contact customer support for assistance.
The motherboard has one SO-DIMM socket, which can accommodate up to 2.0 GB of memory. If new memory is installed,
its type, size and speed are automatically checked by the system BIOS.
The SO-DIMM socket supports the following memory specification :
200-pin DDR2 SDRAM Socket, 533/667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM Memory Interface.
The appearance of the SO-DIMM memory in the figure may not reflect the actual memory, depending on the system model.
1. Before proceeding, make sure that the system is turned off, that you are wearing an anti-static wrist strap (available in
most computer shops), and that your workspace is dust and smoke-free.
2. Removing the CD Drive and the system cover
Place the system on an open flat surface and remove the screws and back cover as shown in the figure.
Make sure that the LCD panel does not get damaged.
