Replacing a dual inline
memory module
To replace a DIMM, follow these steps:
1. Locate the two clips that hold the memory module
in place. One clip holds the left edge of the module
and the other clip holds the right edge.
2. Push one clip away from the module. Then, while
holding the module with one hand, push the other
clip away from the module.
3. Lift the module out of the socket.
4. To install the new DIMM, see “Installing a dual
inline memory module” on page 71.
