Memory Installation Procedure
The Tiger i7500 S2722 requires that memory modules be installed in pairs. Please refer to
the next page for exact details on installing memory modules correctly.
When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory socket.
There should be keys (small indents) on your memory modules that fit according to the keys in the
memory socket. DDR modules and sockets have only one key, which is slightly near the center of
the module/socket. SDRAM modules (also referred to as PC100 or PC133) and their sockets have
two keys and will not insert into DDR DIMM sockets. The method of installing memory modules is
detailed in the following diagrams.
Once the memory modules are firmly seated in the socket, two clamps on either side will close
and secure the module into the socket. Sometimes you may need to close the clamps manually.
To remove the memory module, simply push the clamps outwards until the memory module pops
up. Then simply remove the module.
TIP:
When installing memory, a module may require a considerable amount of force to seat
properly, although this is very rare. To avoid bending and dam aging your motherboard, place it on
its anti -static bag and onto a flat surface, and then proceed with memory installation.
NOTE
YOU MUST
unplug the power connector to the motherboard before performing
system hardware changes, to avoid damaging the boar d or expansion device.
