Installing a DIMM

Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other

system components. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to both the

motherboard and the components.

To install a DIMM:
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by

pressing the retaining clips

outward.

2. Align a DIMM on the socket

such that the notch on the DIMM

matches the break on the socket.

3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the

socket until the retaining clips

snap back in place and the DIMM

is properly seated.

• A DDR2 DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. Do

NOT force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.

• To install two or more DIMMs, refer to the user guide bundled in the

motherboard package.

• Refer to the user guide for qualified vendor lists of the memory modules.

Installing the motherboard

1. I/O ports differ with motherboards.

Use and install the rear I/O shield

that comes with the motherboard

package only.

Some sharp edges and points

might cause physical injury. We

recommend you put on cut or

puncture resistant gloves before

motherboard and I/O shield

installation.
