Removing an SDRAM Module
(User-Replaceable)
The notebook has no SDRAM built into its motherboard, but has two slots for PC133 SDRAM
modules: a system SDRAM slot beneath the keyboard (containing an SDRAM module installed at the
factory), and an expansion slot on the bottom of the unit.
Caution
Provide proper grounding and handle the SDRAM module only by its edges, or you could damage
the module through electrostatic discharge.
Required Equipment

Removing an Expansion SDRAM Module
Removal Procedure
1. Unplug the AC adapter, if present, and remove the battery.
2. On the bottom of the notebook, loosen the screw holding the SDRAM cover (the cover retains the
screws), and remove the cover.
3. Press outward to release the latches at the sides of the SDRAM module (so that the free edge of the
module pops up), then pull the module out of the connector.
