Installing the DIM Module

Note:

The system board used in the following illustrations may not resemble the actual

board. These illustrations are for reference only.

1. Make sure the PC and all other peripheral devices connected to it has been

powered down.

2. Disconnect all power cords and cables.

3. Locate the DIMM socket on the system board.

4. Push the “ejector tabs” which are at the ends of the socket to the side.

5. Note how the module is keyed to the socket.

7. Seat the module vertically, pressing it down firmly until it is completely seated

in the socket. The ejector tabs at the ends of the socket will automatically

snap into the locked position to hold the module in place.

6. Grasping the module by its edges, position the module above the socket with

the “notch” in the module aligned with the “key” on the socket. The keying

mechanism ensures the module can be plugged into the socket in only one

way.
