4 Installing the Memory Modules
CAUTION
Install memory in the DIMM sockets prior to installing a video card in PCI
slot 1 to avoid interference with the memory retention mechanism.
The two DIMM sockets on Desktop Board D845GVAD2 are arranged as
DIMM 0 and DIMM 1, as shown in the figure below. If installing a single
DIMM, install it in DIMM 0.
To install DIMMs, follow these steps:
1.
Observe the precautions in “Before You Begin” on page 3.
2.
Remove the PCI card from PCI slot 1 if it interferes with the DIMM clips
from being easily opened and closed.
3.
Align the small notch in the bottom edge of the DIMM with the key in the
socket.
4.
When the DIMM is inserted, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until
the retaining clips snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in place.
