DIMM Installation (See Figure 2-6)
1. Insert DIMMs in Bank 0 through Bank 3 as required for the desired system
memory.
2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the
two notches along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the
DIMM incorrectly.
3. Gently press the DIMM module until it snaps upright into place in the
slot.
4. For best results, install DIMMs starting from Bank 0 (the DIMM slot
farthest from the BX chip).
To Remove:
Use your thumbs to
gently push near
the edge of both
ends of the module.
This should release
it from the slot.
