Installing DIMMs

Before installing DIMMs, read and follow these guidelines for dual channel configuration.

NOTE

Performance Acceleration Technology (PAT) requires a processor with 800 MHz FSB frequency
and DDR400 memory.

Install a matched pair of DIMMs equal in speed, size, and technology (see Figure 8) in
DIMM 0 in both channels A and B.
