Install the dual inline memory module

Steps

  1. Touching only the outside edges of the DIMM, align the DIMM with the connector.
  2. Press the DIMM vertically down into the socket using pressure at each end while keeping the leading edge of the DIMM parallel to the connector until it fully seats to the bottom of the socket. When the DIMM engages the contacts in the socket, you will feel resistance, and slightly more force is required to push the module down. During this stage, keep in mind the following precautions:
    • Do not insert the DIMM at an angle.
    • Do not rock the DIMM.
    • Do not insert the DIMM by pushing on one end.
    • Do not seat one end of the DIMM and then the other.

  3. Proper DIMM insertion will automatically close the latch ejectors and lock the DIMM into the socket. Verify that the latch ejectors are fully closed and have engaged the notches in the DIMM.
