press ‘Esc’ and then ‘F4’ and the new memory configuration will be recorded.
The system will automatically reconfigure itself for the additional memory. If you check in the
Setup program, you should see that the extended memory total listed on Page 1 has increased.
Memory & Suspend-to-Disk
If you use the Suspend-to-Disk feature, whenever you add memory, you must increase the size of
the dedicated disk partition to be the same size as your new system memory total. Please refer to
Appendix B for instructions on using the PHDisk utility to change the disk partition.f
