Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

This motherboard is equipped with two 184-pin DDR (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots
and two 240-pin DDRII (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots.

1. It is not allowed to install DDR into DDRII slot or DDRII into DDR

slot;otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.

2. It is not allowed to install both DDR and DDRII to this motherboard

at the same time; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be
damaged.

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or
removing DIMMs or the system components.

Step 1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2. Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break

on the slot.

The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent
damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into
the slot at incorrect orientation.

Step 3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully

snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.
