configuration guidelines.
To install DIMMs, perform the following:

2. Disconnect all external devices, ac power, and monitor power.

firmly on the DIMM until it seats correctly. The plastic ejector levers on
the socket ends automatically snap to the upright position (Figure 5-2)
6. Repeat the previous steps to install each DIMM.
7. Replace and lock the left side panel.
8. Connect all external devices and restore power.
