Installing SIMMs

o

angle into a socket. Make sure that the

curved edge that indicates pin 1 of the SIMM matches pin 1 of the socket.

CAUTION: A SIMM fits only in one direction. If you slip in a SIMM but it
does not appear to completely fit, you may have inserted it the wrong way.

2. Gently push the SIMM to a vertical position until the pegs of the socket

slip into the holes on the SIMM. Make sure the holding clips lock the
SIMM into position.

Note: The SIMM should be at a 90

o

angle when installed on the system

board.
