Installing a memory module
Memory modules can be installed in the memory module slots on 
the underside of the computer. You will need a small Phillips 
screwdriver for this procedure.
If the computer has been running recently, the memory module(s) 
may be hot. The surrounding area may also be hot. Allow the 
module(s) to cool to room temperature before replacing it. Avoid 
touching the cover, the module(s), and the surrounding area before 
they have cooled. Failure to follow these directions could result in 
minor bodily injury.
