Replacing the memory module
The computer has one memory module compartment, which is located on the bottom of the computer. The memory capacity of the computer can be enhanced by upgrading the existing memory module in the memory module slot. WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock and damage to the equipment, unplug the power cord and remove all batteries before installing a memory module. CAUTION Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Before beginning any procedure, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object. To replace a memory module: 1. 2. Save your work. Shut down the computer and close the display. If you are not sure whether the computer is off or in hibernation, turn the computer on by pressing the power button. Then shut down the computer through the operating system. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Disconnect all external devices connected to the computer. Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Turn the computer upside down on a flat surface. Remove the battery from the computer.

Effect of increasing memory on the hibernation file
When hibernation is initiated, the operating system saves your information to a hibernation file on the hard drive and then turns off the computer. The operating system reserves space on the hard drive to store the hibernation file based on the amount of system memory. When you increase the system memory, the operating system increases the hard drive space reserved for the hibernation file. If you experience problems with hibernation after increasing memory, be sure that the amount of free space on the hard drive is larger than the space required by the hibernation file. To display the amount of free space on the hard drive: 1. 2. Select Start > My Computer. Right-click the primary hard drive listing, and then click Properties.
To display the amount of space required by the hibernation file:
Select Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Power Options > Hibernate tab.
If the free space on the hard drive is less than the space required by the hibernation file, increase the amount of free space on the hard drive. For assistance, select Start > Help and Support > Performance and Maintenance > Freeing up hard drive space.
