REMOVING AND INSTALLING MEMORY
There are two DIMM slots in your Tablet PC. 256 MB,
512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB modules are available, so you
can install a combination of up to 4 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 Standby 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 2-8.

3. Insert the DIMM module in the socket at an angle
and push it down until it locks into place as shown in
Figure 2-9. 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.
■ Do not remove any screws from the
memory upgrade module compartment
except the ones specifically shown in the
directions for installing and removing the
memory upgrade module.
■ The memory upgrade module can be
severely damaged by electrostatic dis-
charge (ESD). To minimize risk, observe
the following precautions:
■ Before handling a memory module,
touch a grounded metal object to
discharge static electricity built up in
your body.
■ When installing or removing a memory
module, hold it by the edge so as not
to touch any contacts or chips. Be
careful not to touch any computer
terminals or components; the oil from
your fingers could cause a short.
■ Be sure to power down your system
before adding or removing memory
modules. Even if the system is in hiber-
nate or standby, data could be lost or
memory could be damaged if power is
still available to the system.
