Today I will show step-by-step of how to take Fujitsu Lifebook P7230 out. I have no idea why I have a lot of Fujitsu system, but I can say that it's quite a good notebook. Although P7230 uses a bit different step from its predecessor, taking keyboard out is the first step of everything in most notebook. Thus, you will find much easier when trying to upgrade anything else. What surprise me most is you don't have to have even a screw driver to complete this job since Fujitsu decided to use a sticky tape + plastic lock mechanism to stabilize keyboard instead of any screw and it gets the job done nicely. (although the whole machine has a lot of flex, keyboard is not.
Here is the way to upgrade your server; what you can do without any modification is RAM and CPU. However, it’s a bit picky since you don’t have any console to make sure whether BIOS knows the CPU model or not. Unsurprisingly, this board bundled with AMD Sempron 3400+ single core CPU. It’s just not supported dual-core by default. Thus only possibility is AMD Athlon 64 which is single core as well. It’s practically the same architecture, but larger cache, faster speed, and more features. Additionally supported RAM is DDR2-800 or PC2-6400. That’s the best you can get for this system—because of on-chip memory controller specification.
