The memory compartment is located just under your computer. 7-6 Using Options Based Memory Installing Memory Total 32 MB 0 MB 32 MB 32 MB 32 MB 64 MB 32 MB 64 MB 96 MB 32 MB 128 MB 160 MB 64 MB 0 MB 64 MB 64 MB 32 MB 96 MB 64 MB 64 MB 128 MB 64 MB 128 MB 192 MB 128 MB 0 MB 128 MB 128 MB 32 MB 160 MB 128 MB 64 MB 192 MB 128 MB 128 MB 256 MB INSTALLING MEMORY MODULE Your computer comes with standard 32 or 64MB of synchronous DRAM (SDRAM). You can increase system memory to a maximum of 256 MB in the system, by installing one small outline double inline memory modules (SODIMMs) with installed base memory in the system. The 32MB memory module, 64MB memory module, and 128MB memory module are available: To install the memory module: 1. Make sure the system is powered off and that no peripheral devices are attached. 2. Turn the system over and locate the screw that secure the DIMM door at the underside of the notebook. 7-7 N otebook User Guide 3.
