Installing additional memory

The three 168-pin sockets on the mainboard support Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM)-type DIMMs. You may install 32-MB, 64-MB, 128-MB, 256-MB, 512-MB or 1-GB single and double density DIMMs for a maximum memory capacity of 3 GB.

The SDRAM DIMMs should work under 3.3 volts; 5-volt memory devices are not supported. PC-100 (100MHz) and PC-133 (133 MHz) SDRAM are supported. Contact your dealer for qualified DIMM vendors.

Caution: Do not install and use both PC-100 and PC-133 SDRAM together. Such a combination might cause your computer to malfunction.

Each of the DIMM sockets is independent from each other. This independence allows you to install DIMMs with different capacities to form different configurations.

To remove a DIMM

Note: Observe the “Installation precautions” on page 43 when installing or removing a computer component. Also, make sure that you have removed the computer cover (see page 45).

1.Press the holding clips on both sides of the DIMM socket outward to release the DIMM (a).

2.Gently pull the DIMM out of the socket (b).
