Installing System Components

When the memory module is properly seated in the connector, the
securing clips on the memory module socket should align with the
securing clips on the other connectors with memory modules installed.

7 Close the system. See "Closing the System" on page 47.
8 Reconnect the system to the electrical outlet, and turn on the system and

attached peripherals.

The system detects that the new memory does not match the existing
configuration information and generates the following message:

The amount of system memory has changed.

Strike the F1 key to continue, F2 to run the setup

utility

9 Press <F2> to enter the System Setup program and check the value for

Memory Information. See "System Setup Options" on page 30.

The system should have changed the value for Memory Information to
reflect the newly installed memory. Verify the new value. If it is correct,
skip to step 13.

10 If the memory value is incorrect, turn off the system and attached

peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.

11 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 47.
12 Ensure that the installed memory modules are seated properly in their

connectors, and repeat step 7 through step 9.

13 When the Memory Information value is correct, press <Esc> to exit the

System Setup program.

14 Run the system diagnostics to verify that the memory modules are

operating properly. See "Running the System Diagnostics" on page 132.

Microprocessor

You can upgrade the system processor to take advantage of future options in
speed and functionality. The processor and its associated internal cache
memory are contained in a land grid array (LGA) package that is installed in a
ZIF socket on the system board.
