9. To install the DIMMs, repeat the following steps for each DIMM that you install:
Figure 3-10. Installing a DIMM
a. Make sure that the retaining clips on the DIMM connector into which you are
installing the DIMM are in the open position (standing straight up).
b. Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align correctly with the connector on the
system board.
Attention
:
To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM
connectors, handle the clips gently.
c. Press the DIMM into the DIMM connector. The retaining clips will lock the DIMM
into the connector.
d. Make sure that the small tabs on the retaining clips are in the notches on the
DIMM. If there is a gap between the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM has
not been correctly installed. Press the DIMM firmly into the connector, and then
press the retaining clips toward the DIMM until the tabs are fully seated. When
the DIMM is correctly installed, the retaining clips are parallel to the sides of the
DIMM.
