Figure 5-6. Removing Memory Boards
6. At your work station make sure you are protected from static electricity,
install the DIMMs (see Figure 5-4):
a. Remove a DIMM from its container, handling the module by its edges.
Lay it on an anti-static surface.
b. Choose the socket into which you will install a DIMM. DIMMs are
installed four at time: two per board. DIMMs must be TSOP 50 ns, 64
or 256 Mbytes, with no size mixing per bank. DIMMs are installed
starting at J1 and proceed to J8.
c. Spread the two latches on the socket outward.
d. Align the notches on the DIMM with the keys on the socket.
e. Holding the DIMM at 90 degrees to the system board, press the DIMM
fully into the socket until the latches close. If the clips do not close, the
DIMM is not inserted correctly.
7. Repeat step 6 to install all of the DIMMs for your memory configuration.
