CHAPTER 2 Hardware.
32 1 Before Installing a Peripheral Device This PC can accommodate various peripheral devices to expand its functions. WARNING • Use only peripheral devices recommended by Fujitsu.
33 Notes on handling When installing a peripheral device, note the following. • Some peripheral devices may not be used on your PC. Before purchasing a peripheral device, refer to the “System configuration diagram” to determine whether the peripheral device can be used on your PC.
34 When mounting a peripheral device, remove the upper cover and reinforcement bracket so that the inside can be seen. Removing the upper cover Remove the feet, if any, from the PC unit. Place the PC unit in a horizontal position and remove the upper cover.
35 Removing the reinforcement bracket Lift the reinforcement bracket and move it to the front of the PC unit for removal. Point • Install the reinforcement bracket by mating the projections on the PC unit with the holes in the bracket.
36 Increasing the memory capacity increases the amount of data that the system can read at one access, thereby improving the processing capability of the PC. Point • If you want to install a memory module to your PC, set up Windows, turn off the PC, and then install the memory module.
37 Applicable memory modules Use Fujitsu-supplied memory modules, 168-pin SDRAM DIMM memory modules. Up to 512 megabytes (256 MB x 2) of memory can be installed on the PC. In the standard configuration, slot DIMM1 has a memory module. Insert an additional memory module into slot DIMM2.
38 Memory module combinations DIMM1 DIMM2 Total memory capacity 64 MB — 64 MB 64 MB 64 MB 128 MB 64 MB 128 MB 192 MB 64 MB 256 MB 320 MB 128 MB — 128 MB 128 MB 128 MB 256 MB 128 MB 256 MB 378 MB 256 MB — 256 MB 256 MB 256 MB 512 MB Installing Memory Modules 1 Unplug the PC.
