2-2 Install the Memory

112-Pin

Notch

If you take a look at front side of memory module, it has asymmetric pin counts on both sides separated
by a notch in the middle, so it can only fit in one direction. Follow the steps below to correctly install
your memory modules into the sockets.

Step 1:
Spread the clips at both ends of the memory socket.
Place the memory module onto the socket, then
put your fingers on top edge of the module, and
push it down firmly and seat it vertically into the
memory socket.

Step 2:
The clips at both ends of the socket will snap
into place when the memory module is securely
inserted.

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory :

Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory

of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.

Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before

installing the memory to prevent hardware damage.

Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only

one direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.

Be sure to install DDR2 DIMMs on this motherboard.
