Checking The Memory Capacity

LifeBook P Series Notebook/Tablet PC 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 system has recognized the change. Your notebook/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 a maximum of 128 MB of system memory for video functions. 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 several megabytes which are 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 52. 40

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 system 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 several megabytes which are
allocated for fixed video memory.
Your notebook/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
a maximum of 128 MB of system memory
for video functions.
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 52.
