1.6.3 Installing a DIMM
Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system
components. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to both the motherboard and
the components.
To install a DIMM:
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing
the retaining clips outward.
2. Align a DIMM on the socket such
that the notch on the DIMM
matches the break on the socket.
3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the
socket until the retaining clips
snap back in place and the DIMM is
properly seated.
• A DDR2 DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it ts in only one direction. Do not
force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.
• The DDR2 DIMM sockets do not support DDR DIMMs. DO not install DDR DIMMs
to the DDR2 DIMM sockets.
