Once it is installed, you should leave it in place unless you want to change system memory capacity. REMOVING A MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE 1. Perform steps 1 through 4 of Installing a Memory Upgrade Module. 2. Pull the clips sideways away from each side of the memory upgrade module at the same time. 3. While holding the clips out, remove the module from the slot by lifting it up and pulling towards the rear of your tablet. (Figure 4-5) CHECKING THE MEMORY CAPACITY Once you have changed the system memory capacity by either adding or removing a memory upgrade module, be sure to check that your tablet has recognized the change. Your Tablet PC uses Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT), which allows the video driver to dynamically determine the amount of memory that is used. Your system can use the following maximums for video functions: Windows XP: 128 MB Windows Vista: 64 MB (with 512 MB system memory); 256 MB (with 1 GB system memory); 384 MB 9 with 1.5 GB or more system memory).

You can check the memory capacity by clicking [Start] -> Control Panel, then double-clicking the System icon. Select the General tab and check the amount of memory under "Computer." The amount of memory displayed should be approximately the total of all memory modules installed. There may be a discrepancy of 8 MB which is allocated for fixed video memory. If the total memory displayed is incorrect, check that your memory upgrade module is properly installed. (If the module is properly installed and the capacity is still not correctly recognized, see Troubleshooting on page 60. 48

CHECKING THE MEMORY CAPACITY
Once you have changed the system memory capacity by
either adding or removing a memory upgrade module,
be sure to check that your tablet has recognized the
change.
You can check the memory capacity by clicking [Start]
-> Control Panel, then double-clicking the System icon.
Select the General tab and check the amount of memory
under “Computer.”
The amount of memory displayed should be approxi-
mately the total of all memory modules installed. There
may be a discrepancy of 8 MB which is allocated for
fixed video memory.
The memory upgrade module is not
something you routinely remove from
your tablet. Once it is installed, you should
leave it in place unless you want to change
system memory capacity.
Your Tablet PC uses Dynamic Video
Memory Technology (DVMT), which
allows the video driver to dynamically
determine the amount of memory that is
used. Your system can use the following
maximums for video functions:
Windows XP: 128 MB
Windows Vista: 64 MB (with 512 MB
system memory); 256 MB (with 1 GB
system memory); 384 MB 9 with 1.5 GB or
more system memory).
If the total memory displayed is incorrect,
check that your memory upgrade module
is properly installed.
(If the module is
properly installed and the capacity is still
not correctly recognized, see
