If a memory module is already installed in the socket you want to use, you must
remove it. To do so, follow the instructions in Removing a Memory Module.
Use the following procedure to install a memory module (see Figure 8-6):
1. Locate the plastic securing clips at each end of the socket. Press the clips out-
ward until they snap open.
2. Orient the memory modules so that the cutouts on the bottom edge match the
crossbars in the memory module socket slot, and press the memory module
straight into the slot until the securing tabs snap into place around the ends of
the memory module.
