DIMM Installation
To reinstall memory circuits, hold the DIMM upright over its socket. Make sure the keying holes and
notches are in their proper positions. Gently push the DIMM board into the socket, so that the board
snaps into place under the locking retainer on each side of the socket. Be sure that the retainers mate
tightly with DIMM board notches. Do not force a DIMM into its socket!
