24 System Expansion3-4 Replacing the CPU (CG/DG/CM/EG models)The shape and replacement method of the CPU fan may be different depending onthe model.1. Clamps on both sides of the CPU fasten the fan tightly to the CPU socket. raise the handle(1) , release the clamps, and then spread them outward(2).2. After releasing the clamps, lift and remove the CPU fan from the socket.3. Raise the handle on the CPU socket to unlock the CPU.℘Consult your service representatives before replacing the CPU.ℙ
25System Expansion5. Align the identifying marks at the corners of the new CPU and socket, and carefullyinstall the CPU in the socket. Lower the handle to lock the CPU in place.6. Lift the clamps and slide them into the rails at the corners of the CPU socket, andplace the fan into the socket. Push down the handles to lock the clamps.4. Lift the CPU straight up. Be careful not to damage the pins at the bottom of the CPU.In some models, you can not lower one of the handles of the clamps all the way down.For removing CPUs in these models, release the clamp on the other side first. Forinstalling CPUs in these models, lock this clamp first.

28 System Expansion3-5. Increasing the memoryIf you run out of memory while using the computer, you may want to increase theamount of memory in your computer.NoteUse a 2.5V DDR SDRAM DIMM.(The shape of the memory may be different depend-ing on the model) DDR SDRAM enhances the rate of data transmission of theSDRAM and looks different from SDRAM.DDRAbout memoryYour computer uses DDR(Double Data Rate) SDRAM DIMM(Dual In-Line MemoryModule) with 184 pins. Your computer supports Unbuffered DDR SDRAM DIMM of128MB up to 1024MB in size in each socket, and 2048MB total.Note: Windows 95, 98SE, ME supports memory up to 512MB total. Increasing thememory beyond 512MB in these systems may cause errors while using thecomputer.Before increasing the memoryStatic electricity can damage memory modules; be sure to minimize the static electric-ity when replacing memory.Make sure to replace the memory of the same type as the installed memory.DIMM is different from SIMM in that it is configured for 64 bit operation; therefore,your computer can operate with only one DIMM installed.
29System ExpansionPurchasing a memoryCheck the type of memory installed in your computer and refer to the memory configura-tion chart before purchasing a memory.Specification: PC2700/3200(184 pin DDR SDRAM DIMM)Speed: 333MHz(166MHz X 2), 400MHz(200MHz X 2)Size: 256MB, 512MBMemory configuration chartTotal memory DIMM 1 DIMM 2 DIMM 3 DIMM 4 DUAL/SINGLESINGLEDUALDUALSINGLEDUALDUALDUALDUAL512MB256MB 256MB256MB 256MB256MB1024MB256MB 256MB 256MB 256MB512MB 512MB512MB 512MB2048MB 512MB 512MB 512MB 512MB512 (1/4)256Your computer supports PC2700/3200 DDR memory.

30 System ExpansionReplacing the memoryThe main board configuration, memory socket, and the shape of memory may be dif-ferent depending on the model.1. Remove the screws on the real of the computer, and open the computer case.1. Pull the latch on each side of a memory socket.2. Align the notch at the bottom of the memory with a protrusion in the middle of thesocket, and then insert the memory straight down.Note: Push the latch inward so that the memory is securely locked in the socket.2. Pull the latch on each side of a memory socket to release the memory.Installing a memoryNote: Before opening the case, turn off the computer and peripheral devices, andremove the power cords.
31System ExpansionChecking the size of the installed memoryThe computer automatically recognizes the newly installed memory; therefore, you donot need to change the system setup. Follow the instruction below to check the sizeof the installed memory.1. Connect the power cord and other devices, and turn on the computer and monitor.2. Press Delete when the following logo screen appears. In CMOS Setup Utility, selectAdvanced BIOS Features. Change Full Screen Logo Show Selectable from Enabled toDisabled. Press F10, and Enter to save the new setting.3. The computer restarts. Press Esc at the logo screen shown above. If the following screen appears, press Pause to stop and check the size of memory next toMemory Testing.4.

32 System Expansion3-6. Adding a hard disk driveYour computer supports up to 4 E-IDE controllers and 2 hard disk drives.Before adding a hard disk driveAdding a hard disk driveThe following instruction describes the most typical configuration where your comput-er already has a master hard disk drive and you are adding a slave hard disk drive.Note: Check and write down the jumper settings, size, and number of cylinders,heads, and sectors of the hard disk drive where you can refer to when you usethe system setup. (Some hard disk drives do not have the information writtenon the drive)NotePurchase an E-IDE hard disk drive.Set the jumper setting to SL: Slave.The jumper settings differ from one hard disk drive to another, so make sure you fol-low the jumper setting information on top of the drive.JumperSignal cable connectorPower connectorIf the master hard drive is set to CS(Cable Select), the slave drive must also beset to CS(Cable Select).Using screws other than the ones provided with the hard disk drive can damagethe drive. Using longer or thicker screws can be fatal to the disk drive. A harddisk drive must be mounted securely in order to provide reliable performance.
