Installing Memory Modules

Memory modules for your computer are available in 32-, 64-, 128-, 192-, and 256-megabyte (MB) sizes.

NOTE: Your computer has two memory module sockets (slot 1 and slot 2). You can install all sizes of memory modules you purchase from Dell (but which Dell does not install), except the 192-MB memory module, in either socket. If you purchase a non-Dell-installed 192-MB memory module, you must install it in slot 2.

To install memory module(s), perform the following steps.

CAUTION: Before working inside your computer, read “Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge” in the “Safety Instructions” of this guide.

NOTICE: Do not install or remove a memory module when the computer is turned on or in save-to-disk suspend mode.

1.Save and close any open files, exit any open application programs, and shut down the computer.

2.Unplug the computer and any attached peripherals from the electrical outlets.
