Adding or replacing memory
Your notebook uses memory modules called SO-DIMMs (Small Outline
Dual Inline Memory Modules). The modules are available in various
capacities and any module can be placed in the slot. Use only memory
modules designed for your Gateway notebook for upgrading your
memory.
To add or replace memory modules:
1 Follow the instructions under “Preventing static electricity
discharge” on page 66.
2 Turn off your notebook, disconnect the AC adapter and modem and
network cables.
3 Turn your notebook over so the bottom is facing up.
4 Remove the battery. For more information, see “Changing batteries”
on page 59.
5 Remove the memory bay cover screw, then remove the memory bay
cover. For the location of the memory bay, see “Bottom” on page 15.
6 If you are removing a module, gently press outward on the clip at
each end of the memory module until the module tilts upward.
