3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the
socket until the retaining clips snap
back in place and the DIMM is
properly seated.
Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or
other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both
the motherboard and the components.
A DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT force
a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.
