Removing and installing memory
modules
The four 184-pin memory sockets onboard support DDR SDRAM
modules. You may install 128-, 256-, 512-MB and 1 GB DDR SDRAM for
a maximum memory upgrade capacity of up to 4 GB.
The DDR SDRAM module should work under 2.5 volts only; 5-volt
memory devices are not supported. The mainboard supports 266 MHz
DDR-SDRAM ( PC-2100) modules.
Each of the memory sockets is independent from the others. This
independence allows you to install memory modules with different
capacities to form different configurations.
Removing a DIMM
Before you can install a new DIMM in a socket, remove first any
previously installed DIMM from that socket.
1 Open the front panel and remove the side panel of the housing.
See page 36 for more information on opening the housing panels.
2 Locate the DIMM socket on the mainboard.
3 Press the holding clips on both sides of the socket outward to
release the DIMM (a).
