Removing a Memory Upgrade Module
1 Perform steps 1 through 4 of Installing a Memory Upgrade Module.
2 Pull the clips sideways away from each side of the memory upgrade module at the same time.
3 While holding the clips out, remove the module from the slot by lifting it and pulling it away from your notebook.
4 Store the memory upgrade module in a static guarded sleeve.
5 Replace the cover and reinstall the screws.
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.
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):”.
There may be a variation between the actual memory size and what is displayed. This is possible if your
system is configured with a graphics controller which dynamically allocates system memory to accelerate
graphics performance.
THE MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE IS NOT SOMETHING YOU ROUTINELY REMOVE FROM YOUR NOTEBOOK.
O
NCE IT IS INSTALLED, YOU SHOULD LEAVE IT IN PLACE UNLESS YOU WANT TO CHANGE SYSTEM
MEMORY CAPACITY.
I
F 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 89.
