Upgrading the System Memory Many applications will run faster when the system's memory capacity is increased. The V1250 provides one expansion socket located on the back of the system. You can increase memory by adding a Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module, commonly known as a SODIMM. Module capacity can be 256 MB or 512 MB. Note: Your V1250 has been tested with a wide range of memory products on the market. However, not all memory modules are compatible. Go to www.viewsonic.com for a list of compatible V1250 modules. Installing a New Memory Module Upgrading the V1250 memory is a delicate process. Please observe the following instructions carefully or have a qualified technician install memory for you. Damages due to mishandling during this procedure are NOT covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Warning: Changing memory while your computer is in suspend mode or in power-saving mode may cause permanent damage to the V1250. Make sure you turn off the power, unplug the AC cord, and remove the battery before proceeding with a memory upgrade. Do not touch a memory module's metallic contact edge to avoid possible damage from an electrostatic discharge. To Install a New Module 1 Power OFF the V1250. Unplug the AC cord and all cables/devices attached to the system. Remove the battery pack. For more information, see the section Removing the Battery Pack. 2 Place your hand on a large metal object momentarily to discharge any static electricity. 3 Place the V1250 face-down on a soft flat surface.
