GeForce 8100/8200/8300 series Motherboard
Installing the CPU Fan
There are many different fan types that can be used with this motherboard. Follow the
instruction that came with your fan assembly. Be sure that the fan orientation is correct
for your chassis type and your fan assembly.
Installing Memory DIMMs
Your new motherboard has two 1.8V 240-pin slots for DDR2 . These slots support 256
Mb, 512 Mb, 1Gb and 2Gb DDR2. There must be at least one memory bank popu-
lated to ensure normal operation. Use the following the recommendations for installing
memory. (See Figure 1 on page 6 for the location of the memory slots.)
q
One DIMM
: You can install the DIMM into any slot.
q
Two DIMMs
: Install into slots 1 and 2. The idea is to run on dual channel
mode.
Use the following procedure to install memory DIMMs into the slots on the
motherboard. Note that there is only one gap near the center of the DIMM slot. This
slot matches the slot on the memory DIMM to ensure the component is installed
properly.
1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the module clips outward.
2. Align the memory module to the DIMM slot, and insert the module vertically into
the DIMM slot. The plastic clips at both sides of the DIMM slot automatically lock
the DIMM into the connector.
