MEMORY MODULES
There is one DIMM slot in your Tablet PC and 256 MB
on the motherboard. 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB
modules are available, so you can install a combination
of up to 2 GB in the system
.
Installing a Memory Module
To install a DIMM module in the Tablet PC:
1. Ensure that the Tablet PC is off. To do so, carry out
the Shut Down command in the Start menu. (Do
not attempt to remove or install a DIMM module
when the system is in Suspend mode or running.)
2. Remove the two screws from the cover plate on the
back of the Tablet PC and remove the cover plate as
shown in Figure 2-7.

3. Insert the DIMM module in the socket at an angle
and push it down until it locks into place as shown
in Figure 2-8. Note that the DIMM module is keyed
to prevent it from being inserted backwards.

4. Reinstall the cover and screws that you removed in
step 2.
5. Confirm that the DIMM module is recognized by
the system. To do so, run BIOS Setup. The size of
the DIMM module should be displayed in the Info
menu in BIOS Setup.
The DIMM module is installed in the Tablet PC and you
can now use the system.

The DIMM module is now removed from the Tablet PC.
Refer to “Installing a Memory Module” on page 28 to
install a new DIMM module.
DIMM replacement should be performed
at a static-free workstation. Do not touch
connector pins, circuit boards, or other
circuit components on the drive or Tablet
PC. Electrostatic discharge caused by doing
so can damage sensitive components.
