Memory Upgrade
System memory in the NEC PowerMate eco is upgradeable to 640 MB of synchronous dynamic
random access memory (SDRAM). The PowerMate eco has one 144-pin memory slot for a
PC-133 Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (SO-DIMM). The slot supports a 128-MB,
256-MB, or 512-MB (when available) SO-DIMM. The memory slot is located behind the back
cover at the rear of the LCD unit.
See the following procedures to install, and if necessary, remove a memory module.
Installing a Memory Module
Follow these steps to upgrade the system memory.
1.
Save your work and exit Windows. Power off the system, disconnect the AC power adapter,
and disconnect any peripheral devices.
To prevent electric shock, turn off system power and unplug the
system AC power adapter before removing the back cover. Power is removed only when the AC
power adapter is unplugged from its power source.
2.
Carefully position the system on a clean, flat, soft surface, with the LCD panel facing down.
To prevent damage to your LCD panel screen, be sure your work
surface is clean, flat, smooth and free of any objects before positioning the system face down.
3.
Remove the back cover as follows.
If installed, remove the cover lock.
Release the back cover by pressing in on the bottom edges of the cover (see the
