If removing the memory module eliminates the error, the 
memory module may be faulty. If the error recurs without the 
memory module installed, the error is not caused by the

TECHNICAL NOTE: You must have at least one memory module 
installed for the computer to work.
For this model Slot A is the bottom slot. Slot B is the top slot. If only 
one memory module is to be installed, it must be installed in slot A. 
Power and the batteries 
Your computer receives its power through the AC adaptor and 
power cord/cable or from the system batteries (battery, optional 
secondary battery, and real-time clock (RTC) battery). Power 
problems are interrelated. For example, a faulty AC adaptor or 
power cord/cable will neither power the computer nor recharge the 
batteries.
Here are some typical problems and how to solve them:
The AC power light does not come on when you plug in the 
AC adaptor and power cord/cable.
Make sure the AC adaptor and power cord/cable are firmly plugged 
into both the wall outlet and the computer.
If the AC power light still does not come on, check that the wall 
outlet is working properly by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
