Memory Modules

Memory modules are installed into one or two SO-DIMM sockets on the system board. The sockets are accessible from the bottom of the system unit.

The sockets support up to 512 MB of high-speed memory. The system supports 144-pin PC100 SDRAM modules in 64-MB, 128-MB, and 256-MB non-ECC memory configurations.

Use the following guidelines in selecting SO-DIMM types:

!Memory can be installed in one or two sockets.

!The size of the SO-DIMMs can vary between sockets.

!The speed of the SO-DIMMs must match the processor bus speed (133 MHz or higher).

!Single- and double-sided SO-DIMMs are supported.

For sample memory configurations, see the table “Sample SO-DIMM Upgrade Paths.”

To determine the memory you need to purchase for a memory upgrade, see “Checking System Memory.”

The modules use synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM). Memory allocation is controlled by DVMT. With DVMT, total system memory is shared between system memory and video memory.
