Installing the Spacer
When installing the motherboard remember to insert the SPACER at the corner
near the DIMM sockets to provide better support for future DRAM modules.
Installing a DRAM Module
To install a DRAM module,
•
Determine the desired amount of memory and acquire the necessary DRAM
modules.
•
Note that a DRAM module has a polarity notch at one end so that it fits
into a socket only one way. Hold the module by the edges. Do not touch
the shiny contacts.
•
Align the DRAM module edge connector with the slot at the center of the
socket.
•
Position the DRAM module to the left of the socket and press the DRAM
module edge connector firmly into the socket.
If you have misaligned or only partially seated the module, remove the
DRAM module gently and reinstall it.
