Installing 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.

Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or

other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both

the motherboard and the components.
