5. UPGRADING YOUR COMPUTER This upgrade activity should only be performed by an adult. Upgrading the System Memory Module Many applications will generally run faster when the computer’s dynamic memory capacity is increased. The computer has a DDR2 memory socket, which is located underneath the keyboard. You can increase the amount of memory by replacing the existing one with a dual inline memory module (commonly known as SO-DIMM) of a higher capacity. The SO-DIMM can be 256MB, 512MB, or 1024MB in capacity.
Use a small blade to press the latch inward. The keyboard tray should pop up slightly over the latch. If the keyboard tray does not pop up, try to gently lift it up slightly above the latch. Repeat this step for the other keyboard latch. 4. 34 Carefully lift up the bottom edge and do not break-loose the flex-cable that connects to the keyboard. Turn the keyboard and the metal cover over, and then the DDR DIMM Socket is revealed.
5. To remove an old DIMM from the socket, press out on the latches located on both edges of the socket at the same time. The DIMM should pop up to an angle of 30 degree (see diagram below). Pull the DIMM module out of the memory socket. Store the DIMM for the future use. 6. Install the new DIMM module into the memory socket. The DIMM will only fit in one orientation. Insert the DIMM at an angle of approximately 30 degrees into the empty memory socket.
7. Pivot the DIMM until the latches on both sides of the socket snap into place. Notice the notch on the DIMM. The notches should fit nicely with the socket. 8. Put the metal cover and the keyboard back to their original position. Make sure the bottom edge of the keyboard now resides under the spring-loaded latches. You may need to use a small pin to push in the latch first, otherwise the keyboard will not fit in. Congratulations! You have just completed the memory upgrade.
Your computer has been tested with a wide range of DIMM on the market. However, not all memory modules are compatible. Check with your system vendor for a list of compatible DIMM for your computer. Upgrading the Mass-Data-Storage Device To upgrade the mass-data-storage capacity, you can either replace the existing M-System flash storage module with one that has a higher capacity, or instead, replace it with the 1.8 inch P-ATA-type hard disk drive module.
38 3. Gently lift the old module and replace it with the new one. When you do this, be sure that the flash module connector is properly seated on the main-board, as the connector may be attached to the old flash module. The connector is what links the flash module to the system board. 4. 5. Re-attach Screw A. Put the metal cover and the keyboard back to their original position. Make sure the bottom edge of the keyboard now resides under the spring-loaded latches.
Congratulations! You have just completed the flash module upgrade. You may need to reformat the new flash storage module and re-install O/S, drivers, and all the necessary applications. Installing the Optional Hard Disk Drive Module To replace the flash storage module with the hard disk drive module, do the following: 1. 2. Follow the first four steps in the previous section, Upgrading the System Memory Module, to access the hard disk drive bay. Locate and remove one Screw A.
40 3. Gently lift the old module. Be sure that you remove the flash connector as well. You need to remove the existing flash module in order to install the hard disk drive module. 4. The HDD module comes with a metal casing and a flexcable with HDD connector. Place the HDD module into the HDD module bay and join together the two HDD connectors as shown below.
5. Put the metal cover and the keyboard back to their original position. Make sure the bottom edge of the keyboard now resides under the spring-loaded latches. You may need to use a small pin to push the latch in first, before you lower the keyboard.
Congratulations! You have just completed the hard disk drive installation. You may need to reformat the new drive and re-install O/S, drivers, and all the necessary applications.
6. TROUBLE SHOOTING The trouble shooting activity should only be performed by an adult. Your computer has been fully tested and complies with the system specifications before shipping. However, incorrect operations and/or mishandling may cause problems. This chapter provides a reference for identifying and correcting common hardware and software problems that you may encounter. When you encounter a problem, you should first try to go through the recommendations in this chapter.
• • Some software programs, which have not gone through rigorous coding and testing, may cause problems during your routine use. Consult the software vendor for problem solving. Be sure to go to BIOS SETUP and load DEFAULT SETTING after BIOS re-flash. Audio Problems No speaker output • • Software volume control is turned down in Operating System’s Sound System or is muted.
• Make sure the source of noise is indeed from the hard drive and not the fan or other devices. The hard disk drive has reached its capacity • • Archive files or programs that you had no longer used by moving them to an alternative storage medium (card reader, etc.) or uninstall programs that are no longer used. Many browsers store files in the hard drive as a cache to speed up the performance.
• Try restarting the system. The characters on the screen repeat while I type. • • You may be holding the keys down too long while you’re typing. Keep the keyboard clean. Dust and dirt under the keys could cause them to stick. Memory Problems The POST does not show an increased memory capacity when you have already installed additional memory • • • Certain brands of memory module may not be compatible with your system. You should ask your vendor for a list of compatible DIMM.
• Make sure the Ethernet cable is connected to the hub socket that supports 100Base-TX mode. The hub may have both 10Base-TX and 100Base-T sockets. Performance Problems The computer becomes hot • • • • In a 35oC environment, the certain areas of the computer’s back case are expected to reach 50 degrees. Make sure the air vents are not blocked. If the fan does not seem to be working at high temperature (50 degrees Celsius and up), contact the service center.
