Installing memory
When you upgrade the computer memory, make sure that you install the correct type of
memory module for your computer. Your computer uses DIMM memory.
To install or replace DIMM memory:
1
Remove the side panel by following the instructions in “Removing the side panel”
on page 50 .
2
For more stability, place your computer on its side. To avoid scratching the case, place
it on a towel or other non-abrasive surface.
3
Find the memory module banks on your system board.
4
If you are removing a DIMM from the memory module bank, gently pull the plastic
tabs away from the sides of the memory module and remove it.

If you are adding a DIMM to an empty memory module bank, gently pull the plastic
tabs away from the sides of the memory module bank.
