CHECKING THE MEMORY CAPACITY
Once you have changed the system memory capacity by
either adding or removing a memory upgrade module,
be sure to check that your notebook has recognized the
change.
You can check the memory capacity by clicking [Start]
-> Control Panel, then double-clicking the System icon.
Select the General tab and check the amount of memory
under “Computer.”
The memory upgrade module is not
something you should routinely remove
from your notebook. Once it is installed,
you should leave it in place unless you
want to increase system memory capacity.
After installing your added memory
module, you must complete the Resetting
the Save-to-Disk Parameters procedure in
order for the Save-to-Disk mode to
operate properly on your LifeBook
notebook.
(See Hibernation (Save-to-
Disk) Feature on page 33 for more
information)
If 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 55.
