Caution

To avoid generating static electricity and damaging the

memory chips, ground yourself by touching the metal

surface on the inside of the computer’s back panel. Then

remain as stationary as possible while you install them.

3.

Remove the memory chips from their package and inspect
each one. The pins should point inward at slightly less than

a 90

o

angle.

If any of the pins are bent, straighten them gently with your

fingers or with small tweezers to align them with the other
pins. Be careful when you do this; the pins are fragile and

can break off easily.

4.

Position one of the video chips over the first empty socket as

shown below, aligning the pins on the chip with the holes

in the socket. Make sure the notch in the end of the chip is

aligned with a similar notch in the socket.
