IMPORTANT NOTE
This text was updated in December 2000 and replaces all earlier
information on memory replacement in the HP Kayak XU800.
Replacing SDRAM
SDRAM was available on some XU800 models shipped before May 2000.
Following an announcement made by the Intel Corporation that SDRAM
memory should not be used with the Intel 840 chipset (the chipset used in
the Kayak XU800) HP is replacing all SDRAM memory already shipped with
RDRAM (RAMBUS DRAM) memory.
To determine whether you have SDRAM or RDRAM memory installed,
remove the cover of the PC. SDRAM models of the HP Kayak XU800 carry a
SDRAM Memory Expansion Card as shown below.
To carry out the conversion, you should contact HP Support. You will then
be able to upgrade with RDRAM memory as described here.
