Setting up your computer and getting started
5.375 x 8.375 ver 3.1
Your computer comes with enough memory to run most of
today’s popular applications. You may want to increase the
computer’s memory if you use complex software or process
large amounts of data.
Additional memory comes in various capacities (visit the
Toshiba Web site at accessories.toshiba.com for more
information). There are two memory slots. Your system may
have both slots occupied.
If you use the computer for a long time, the memory modules will
become hot. If this happens, let the modules cool to room
temperature before you replace them.
You need a standard Phillips No. 1 screwdriver to install a
memory module.
To avoid damaging the computer’s screws, use a standard Phillips
No. 1 screwdriver that is in good condition.

conditions. You can damage the computer and the memory module.
1. The computer is turned on.
