Aptiva - 2144/2168 (SL-H/I) - How to install video memory upgrade

Applicable to: World-Wide

Caution:
Before removing any field-replaceable unit (FRU), power off the system unit, unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, disconnect any interconnecting cables, and disconnect any telephone cords. The power supply might contain +5 V dc auxiliary power when the system is powered off. Be sure to unplug the power cord before attempting any replacements.

Warning:
The system board, processors, adapter cards, SIMMs, video memory modules, and upgrade processors can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use an electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap to establish personal grounding. If you don't have an ESD strap, establish personal grounding by touching a ground point with one hand before touching the static-sensitive FRUs.

The arrows in this procedures document show the direction of movement to remove a FRU, to turn a screw, or to press a tab to release the FRU. Begin all removals by removing the cover (and rear cover, if applicable). Before disconnecting any cables, note their locations. Reinstall any new FRUs with cables in the same locations.

1056 - Video Memory - Type H-2, I-2
Warning:
Video memory DRAM modules are sensitive to static discharge.
- Adapter cards (1035) if applicable.
- Use the Video Memory Removal Tool to remove the video memory module.

Note:
Run the Setup Utility after adding or removing memory.
