Adding Memory (Optional)
Your computer comes with enough memory to run most of
today’s popular applications. However, you may want to increase
the computer’s memory. With additional memory, the computer:
❖
can run more programs and open more documents at the
same time.
❖
runs Windows 95 and Windows applications faster.
By installing extra memory now, you’ll be able to operate your
computer at its maximum capacity from the start. Of course, you
can always come back to this section if you decide to add memory
at a later time.
Sizes of Memory Modules
Additional memory is easy to install. Memory modules, available
from your dealer, come in the following sizes:
Install the Memory Module
The memory module installs into the memory expansion slot on
the bottom of the computer. You’ll need a small Phillips screw-
driver for this procedure:
1 Click Start, then click Shut Down.
If the computer is already turned off, skip to step 3.
2 Click the button next to Shut down the computer, then
click Yes.
Windows 95 shuts down and turns the computer off
automatically.
