Installing System Memory (DIMMs)
Your new motherboard has four 1.8V 240-pin slots for DDR2 memory. These slots support
256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB DDR2 memory modules. They also support dual channel
DDR2 memory technology up to 10.7GB/s. There must be at least one memory bank
populated to ensure normal operation. Use the following the recommendations for installing
memory. (See Figure 1 on page 5 for the location of the memory slots.)
One DIMM: Install into slot 0. You can install the DIMM into any slot however, slot 0 is
preferred.
Two DIMMs: Install into either slot 0 and 1 or 2 and 3. The idea is to not have the
DIMMs in adjacent slots.
Four DIMMS: Install into slots 0, 1, 2, and 3.
Use the following procedure to install memory DIMMs. Note that there is only one gap near the center
of the DIMM slot. This slot matches the slot on the memory DIMM to ensure the component is
installed properly.
1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the module clips outward.
2. Align the memory module to the DIMM slot and insert the module vertically while
applying light downward pressure to properly seat the DIMM. The plastic clips at both
sides of the DIMM slot automatically lock the DIMM into the connector.
