Step 26.
Installing Memory on the Motherboard
Be sure to check the reference manual for your motherboard for a list of recommended
memory devices for your motherboard. If this information is not in the reference
manual, check the motherboard manufacturers web site.
Memory for the AMD Athlon processor motherboards comes in DIMM (dual in-line
memory module) modules or sticks. Photo 37 shows two DIMM sticks.
Do not handle the DIMM sticks by the edge connectors.
The DIMM sticks have notches that align them to the memory sockets.
Consult the reference manual for your motherboard to determine the correct
installation sequence for the memory. Usually you should install the first stick in
socket 1 and the second in socket 2 and so on. However, your motherboard may have
special requirements, so check the manual.
