Installing the Motherboard 2-5
User’s Manual
Step 2. Remove the computer’s chassis cover.
Step 3. Before touching any
electronic components, make sure
you first touch an unpainted,
grounded metal object to discharge
any static electricity stored on your
clothing or body.
Step 4. Locate your computer’s
168-pin memory expansion DIMM
socket.
Step 5. Insert the DIMM module
into the expansion socket as shown
in the illustration. Note how the
module is keyed to the socket. You can refer to figure 2-6 for the details. This insures the
DIMM module will be plugged into the socket in one way only. Firmly press the DIMM
module into the DIMM socket, making certain the module is completely seated in the
DIMM socket.
Step 6. Once the DIMM module has been installed, the installation is complete and the
computer’s cover can be replaced. Or you can continue to install other devices and
add-on cards that are mentioned in the following section.
Note
When you install a DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket, the eject tab should be
locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention on the both sides.
