Installing a Memory Option
Increasing memory capacity is an effective way to make programs
run faster. You can increase the amount of memory in your
computer by installing a memory option, called a
dual inline memory
module
, or
DIMM
, to increase your computer's memory.
Important
Changing memory while your computer is in suspend mode or
hibernation mode may cause permanent damage to the
equipment.
Installing and Removing the DIMM

Touch any metal object with your hand.
2
Turn off the computer; then disconnect the AC Adapter and all
cables from the computer.
Attention:
Make sure that any locking device is
unlocked.

remove it.
