Chapter 2     Installation Instructions

Memory

This motherboard includes two 184-pin slots Memory  sockets. You must in-
stall at least one memory module to ensure normal operation. If you install two
modules, they must be the same speed. Mixed memory modules from different
manufacturers is not recommended.

Installation of DDR Memory

1. There is only one gap in the center of the DIMM socket, and the memory

module can be fixed in one direction only. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing
the module clips outward.

2. Align the memory module to the DIMM socket and insert the module verti-

cally into the DIMM socket.

3. The plastic clips at both sides of the DIMM socket will lock automatically.
