Memory upgrades are accomplished by adding single or multiple DIMMs of the same or varied sizes. This chart does not represent all
possible memory configurations. The HP Compaq 8100 Elite Series PCsupports non-ECC DDR3 PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) and PC3-
8500 (1066 MHz) memory.
CAUTION:
CAUTION: CAUTION:
CAUTION:
You must shut down the computer and disconnect the power cord before adding or removing memory modules.
Regardless of the power-on state, voltage is always supplied to the memory modules as long as the computer is plugged in to an
active AC outlet. Adding or removing memory modules while voltage is present may cause irreparable damage to the memory
modules or system board.

For systems configured with more than 3 GB of memory and a 32-bit operating system, all memory
may not be available due to system resource requirements. Addressing memory above 4 GB
requires a 64-bit operating system

* The Intel Q57 Express chipset includes a built-in Management Engine (ME), which allocates memory for manageability functions.
Management Engine memory is shared with system memory. If the PC contains a single SO-DIMM, 16 MB of memory is pre-
allocated for it at system startup. If the PC contains two SO-DIMMs, 32 MB of memory is pre-allocated. This memory is not made
available to the operating system, just as pre-allocated video memory is not available.
