Installation Overview

Follow these steps to install each DIMM in a DIMM socket on the system board.
DIMMs can be 32 MB, 64 MB, or 128 MB in any combination. They can be
installed in any order in any of the DIMM sockets on the system board.

1. Remove an HP DIMM fTom its container, handling the module by its

edges. If you must set it down, place it on an antistatic mat.

2. Locate the socket where you will install the DIMM, and spread outward the

two retaining clips shown in Figure 1-3.

3. Align the notches on the DIMM with the keys on the socket, and hold the

DIMM at a 90° angle to the system board.

4. Insert the DIMM fully the into the socket. The retaining clips will grasp the

DIMM automatically if it is inserted properly. If the clips do not close, the
DIMM is not inserted correctly.

CAUTION Do not rock the DIMM into place, but apply firm and even

pressure (significantly more than you would when installing

SIMMs). If the retaining clips do not close, remove the DIMM
and repeat Steps 2-4.

Reinsert the System Board

Insert the plastic rails on the back side of the system board into the metal guides
on the side of the chassis, and push the system board downward, as follows:

• If you will install any accessory boards into slot 5 or 6, leave the system

board in its raised position, extending about 5 inches (about 12 cm) above
the chassis.

• If not, hold the handles of the retaining latches vertical, and push the

system board down to seat it firmly in its slot. Then, lower the retaining
latches simultaneously to secure the board.

NOTE

Lower both retaining latches at the same time to avoidjamming
the system board.
