Getting Started
Recovering the Internal Storage Drive
If the computer does not recognize the memory configuration, turn
off the computer and remove the memory module slot cover
(complete steps 1-10 in “Installing a memory module” on page 44),
and then check that the module is inserted completely into the
socket and lined up squarely with the socket latches.
From time to time, Windows
®
will display a pop-up that says, “Do
you want to allow the following program to make changes to this
computer?” This is a security feature to prevent programs or people
from doing things on your computer without your permission. If you
were trying to perform the action, click Continue; otherwise, click
Cancel. If unsure, cancel and try again.
