Upgrading your VAIO computer
Upgrading your VAIO computer
Sony recommends contacting your local dealer for upgrade or maintenance of your new computer. Your local dealer has knowledge
of this specialised personal computer and familiar with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and
modifying electronic equipment.
The upgrading procedures described in this section assume that you are familiar with the general terminology associated with
personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and modifying electronic equipment.
Disconnect the computer from its power source and from telecommunication links, networks, or modems before you open the unit
or follow any procedures described in this section.
Your computer may not be equipped with all of the hardware features mentioned in this section. The interior configuration of your
system may vary from the illustrations, depending on the computer purchased.
To view the hardware configuration for your computer, see the printed Specifications sheet.
Your VAIO desktop and memory modules use high precision components and electronic connector technology. To avoid the
invalidation of your guarantee by mishandling, it is recommended that:
❑ You contact your local Sony dealer to install any new internal hardware components.
❑ You do not install memory modules yourself, if you are not familiar with upgrading memory on a computer.
❑ Please contact VAIO-Link if you need assistance.
!
Failure to disconnect your computer from its power source may result in personal injury or equipment damage.
! Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-on cards, and other components. Follow the procedures here only at an ESD workstation. Otherwise, do not work
on a carpeted area and do not handle materials that produce or hold static electricity, such as cellophane wrappers. Ground yourself by keeping constant contact with an
unpainted metal part of the unit while carrying out any of these procedures.
