Figure 2-8. Removing the Memory Module Cover
NOTICE: To prevent damage to the computer, do not use tools to spread
the inner metal tabs of the socket when you are installing or removing
a memory module.
6. If you are replacing one or more memory modules, remove the memory
module(s) as shown in Figure 2-9.
NOTE: If one memory module is already installed and you are adding a second
memory module, put the second module in the available slot. Removing existing
module(s) is necessary only if they are being replaced. Depending on how you
ordered your computer, one or two modules may already be installed.
Using your fingernails, carefully spread apart the inner metal tabs of the memory
module socket just far enough for the memory module to disengage from the
socket (the module should pop up slightly). Then lift the memory module away
from the socket.
