Close the case, reconnect the power cord, and turn on the system.
Your system now detects the speed of the new processor.
Installing memory
The Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) Dual
In-line Memory Modules (DIMMs) supported by your system board
conform to the following standards:
•
3.3 V, 168-pin unbuffered SDRAM
•
16 MB and 32 MB (16 bit technology)
•
64 MB and 128 MB (64 bit technology)
•
Single- or double-sided configurations
•
384 MB maximum system memory
When you are installing DIMMs, keep the following in mind:
•
You can use 16-MB, 32-MB, 64-MB, and 128-MB DIMMs in any
combination, band, or order to expand the SDRAM up to 384 MB.
•
No jumper settings are required for the memory size or type
because this information is automatically detected by the BIOS.
•
This system board requires 4-clock DIMMs with a clock latency of
2 (CL2), otherwise known as CL24-clock DIMMs.
