Installing a SIMM

Follow these steps to install a SIMM:

1.

Carefully slip a SIMM at a 45

°

 angle into a socket making sure that the 

curved edge indicating the pin 1 of the SIMM matches pin 1 of the 
socket.

A SIMM fits only in one direction.  If you slip in a
SIMM but would not completely fit, you may have
inserted it the wrong way.  Reverse the 
orientation of the SIMM.

2.

Gently push the SIMM to a vertical position until the pegs of the socket 
slip into the holes on the SIMM, and the holding clips lock the SIMM 
into position.  The SIMM should be at a 90

°

 angle when installed.
