Installing memory
Increasing memory capacity is an effective way to make programs run faster. You can increase the amount of memory in
your computer by installing a PC2100 double data rate (DDR) synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM)
unbuffered small outline dual inline memory module (SO-DIMM), available as an option, in the memory slot on the
bottom of the computer. SO-DIMMs with different capacities are available.
Note: Use only a PC2100 DDR SDRAM unbuffered SO-DIMM in your computer. If you install a SO-DIMM that is not supported by
your computer, the computer beeps, and the system does not start. You can purchase the appropriate memory option from your IBM
reseller or IBM marketing representative.
Attention: Before you start installing a module, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action reduces any static
electricity from your body. The static electricity could damage the SO-DIMM.
To install the SO-DIMM, do the following:
1. Turn off the computer; then disconnect the ac adapter and all cables from the
computer.
2. Close the computer display, and turn the computer over.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Loosen the screws on the memory slot cover; then remove the cover.
5
If both memory slots are occupied, remove one SO-DIMM to make room for the
new one by pressing out on the latches on both edges of the socket at the same
time. Be sure to save it for future use.
5. Find the notch on the contact edge of the SO-DIMM.
Attention: To avoid damaging the SO-DIMM, do not touch its contact edge.
6
6. With the notched end of the SO-DIMM matching the notch of the socket, insert the
SO-DIMM into the socket at an angle of about 20 degrees 1; then press it firmly.

7. Pivot the SO-DIMM until it snaps into place 2.
Make sure that the card is firmly fixed in the slot and does not move easily.
8. Replace the memory slot cover over the memory slot, aligning the back side of the cover first; then tighten the screws.
Attention: When you have added or upgraded a memory card, do not use your computer until you have closed the memory
slot cover. Never use the computer with the cover open.
9. Put the battery pack in place and turn the computer over again.
To make sure that the SO-DIMM is installed correctly, do as follows:
1. Turn the computer on.
2. While the “To interrupt normal startup, press the blue Access IBM button”message is displayed at the lower-left area of the
screen, press the Access IBM button. The Access IBM Predesktop Area appears on the screeen. (If you have deleted the service
partition of the hard disk drive, or replaced the hard disk drive itself, the Access IBM Predesktop Area does not appear. Refer
to the “Note”below.) The “Installed memory”item shows the total amount of memory installed in your computer. For
example, if you install a 256/MB SO-DIMM into a computer whose built-in or installed memory is 256 MB, the quantity
shown in “Installed memory”should be 512 MB.
Note: If the “Startup Interrupt Menu”appears instead of the “Access IBM Predesktop Area”, press the F1 key to enter the
“IBM BIOS Setup Utility”.
