Older Presario 1200 - Simple question

[Neos]

Hi ..
I am a reader here, not a poster ...hence this may be my first question in a long, long time.

I have an old Compaq Presario 1200. When I try to charge it, the battery indicator will not light. The power light does light.

I checked the memory, and there is no installed module.
I am pretty sure it was there when it worked. I apparently have removed it and lost it.

Does the unit have to have a module installed to work?
(I think there is internal memory from reading the manual, hence the question)

Thanks

if theres no memory modules aka ram memory. it wont work.

Thanks.
I thought that had to be the case, but when I read there was some internal memory ...I thought it best to make sure.
