To install a DDR DIMM:
1. Locate the two
DIMM sockets on
the motherboard.
2. Unlock a socket by
pressing the
retaining clips
outward.
3. Align a DIMM on the
socket such that
the notch on the
DIMM matches the
break on the
socket.
4. Firmly insert the
DIMM into the
socket until the
retaining clips snap
back in place and
the DIMM is
properly seated.

The system motherboard supports different memory frequencies
depending on the CPU FSB (Front Side Bus) and the type of DDR DIMM.
*When using 800 MHz CPU FSB, PC2700 DDR DIMMs may run only at
320 MHz (not 333 MHz) due to chipset limitation.

400 MHz PC2100 266 MHz
A DDR 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!
