- Memory Upgrade Module
Checking the Memory Capacity
Once you have changed the system memory capacity by replacing the installed module with a larger one,
be sure to check that your notebook has recognized the change.
Windows 7: Check the memory capacity by clicking [Start] -> Settings -> Control Panel, then (while in
Category view) clicking the System and Security icon. Select the Security icon and check the amount of
memory next to “Installed memory (RAM):”.
Windows XP: Check the memory capacity by clicking [Start] -> Settings -> Control Panel, then double-
clicking the System icon. Select the General tab and check the amount of memory under “Computer:”
Windows Vista: Check the memory capacity by clicking [Start] -> Control Panel -> System and
Maintenance -> System. The amount of memory is displayed next to “Memory - RAM:” Note that in
Windows XP systems, there may be a variation between the actual memory size and what is displayed.
This is possible if your system is configured with an integrated graphics media accelerator which
dynamically allocates system memory to accelerate graphics performance.
IF THE TOTAL MEMORY DISPLAYED IS INCORRECT, CHECK THAT YOUR MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE IS
PROPERLY INSTALLED. (IF THE MODULE IS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND THE CAPACITY IS STILL NOT
CORRECTLY RECOGNIZED, SEE TROUBLESHOOTING ON PAGE 92.
