Adding Memory

You can increase your computer memory by installing memory modules on the system board. See "Specifications" on page 89 for information on the memory supported by your computer. Be sure to add only memory modules that are intended for your computer.

CAUTION: Before working inside your Dell™ computer, read the safety instructions in the Product Information Guide.

NOTE: Memory modules purchased from Dell are covered under your computer warranty.

1Save and close any open files, exit any open programs, and shut down the computer (see "Turning Off Your Computer" on page 27).

2If the computer is connected to a docking device (docked), undock it. See the documentation that came with your docking device for instructions.

3Remove all installed batteries, and disconnect the AC adapter cable and any external devices from the computer. Wait 5 seconds before proceeding.

4Ground yourself by touching a metal connector on the back of the computer, and continue to do so periodically during this procedure.

NOTICE: While you work, periodically touch unpainted metal on the computer to dissipate static electricity that might harm internal components.

5Turn the computer over, remove the screw from the memory module cover, and lift the cover.
