6-5. Increasing the memory
If you run out of memory while using the computer, you may want to increase the
amount of memory in your computer.
About memory
Your computer uses DDR(Double Data Rate) SDRAM DIMM(Dual In-Line Memory
Module) with 184 pins. Your computer supports Unbuffered DDR SDRAM DIMM of
128MB up to 1024MB in size in each socket, and 2048MB total.
Before increasing the memory
ãAlways wear gloves to avoid injury when disassembling the computer
ãStatic electricity can damage memory modules be sure to minimize the static
electricity when replacing memory.
ãMake sure to replace the memory of the same type as the installed memory.
ãDIMM is different from SIMM in that it is configured for 64 bit operation; therefore,
your computer can operate with only one DIMM installed.
ãWindows 95, 98SE, ME supports memory up to 512MB total. Increasing the memory
beyond 512MB in these systems may cause errors while using the computer.
Note
ãUse a 2.5V DDR SDRAM DIMM.(The shape of the memory may be different depending
on the model) DDR SDRAM enhances the rate of data transmission of the SDRAM and
looks different from SDRAM.
Note

Purchasing a memory
Check the type of memory installed in your computer and refer to the memory configura-
tion chart before purchasing a memory.

ãEach identical memory should be used for dual channel setting.
ãDual channel setting is recommended.

memory with a protrusion in the middle
of the socket, and then insert the
memory straight down.
Installing a memory
Latch
ãBefore opening the case, turn off the
computer and peripheral devices, and
remove the power cords.
Note
ãFor dual channel system, each mem
ory should be installed in independent
slot(1&3 slot or 2&4 slot) when using
DDR Memory
It is recognized as a single channel if
there is a difference between dual
channel 1 and 3, 2 and 4.

6-6. Adding a hard disk drive
Your computer supports up to 4 E-IDE controllers and 2 hard disk drives.
The 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.
ãAlways wear gloves to avoid injury when disassembling the computer.
ãIf the master hard drive is set to CS(Cable Select), the slave drive must also be set to
CS(Cable Select).
ãUsing screws other than the ones provided with the hard disk drive can damage the drive.
Using longer or thicker screws can be fatal to the disk drive. A hard disk drive must be
mounted securely in order to provide reliable performance.
Before adding a hard disk drive
Adding a hard disk drive
ãCheck 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 use the system setup.
(Some hard disk drives do not have the information written on the drive)

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
pro-vide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installa-
tion. This equipment generates, uses and can radi-ate radio frequency energy and,
if not in-stalled and used in accordance with the in-structions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interfer-
ence will not occur in a particular installation. If this equip-ment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the fol-lowing measures:
-. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-. Increase the separation between the equip-ment and receiver.
-. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
re-ceiver is connected.
-. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
