For additional safety best practices information, see the Regulatory Compliance Homepage at dell.com/ regulatory_compliance. NOTE: Memory modules purchased from Dell or Alienware are covered under your computer warranty. NOTE: If you purchased a dual-core processor, your computer supports only memory module connectors DIMM 1 and DIMM 2. NOTE: Your computer supports up to four memory module connectors. You can access connectors DIMM 1 and DIMM 2 by removing the compartment door at the bottom of your computer. You can access connectors DIMM 3 and DIMM 4 by removing the memory-module cover on top of the palm rest assembly. Procedure NOTE: If you need to install memory modules in two connectors, install a memory module in the lower connector before you install a memory module in the upper connector. 1 Align the notch in the memory module with the tab on the memory-module connector. 2 Slide the memory module firmly into the connector at a 45-degree angle, and press the memory module down until it clicks into place. If you do not hear the click, remove the memory module and reinstall it. NOTE: If the memory module is not installed properly, the computer may not boot. 24 | Replacing the Memory Module(s)
