Installing a RIMM or C-RIMM
1. Position the RIMM or C-RIMM above the connector
so that the two notches on the bottom edge of the
module align properly with the empty connector.
Note
Pay attention to the orientation of the notches on
the connectors and RIMMs. Adjacent connectors
might not have the same orientation on the
memory card.
2. Firmly push the module straight down into the
connector until the retaining clips pop up and fit
snugly around both ends of the module.

3. Place the memory card back in the slot on the system
board and reattach the power and hard disk drive fan
cables to the connectors on the memory card.
4. Release the adapter guide latch on the front fan.
Procedures to determine memory errors:
1. If a memory error occurs, and the system is
operational, run memory diagnostics.
2. If a memory error occurs, and the system is not
operational:
a. Replace one RIMM module at a time until the
system comes up.
Note
All unused RIMM sockets must have a
C-RIMM installed.
b. Run memory diagnostics.
c. Install the other RIMM and run diagnostics again
to identify the failing RIMM.
