Installation of Memory
The m otherboard has 4 dual inline m emory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects
memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM socket. The DIMM
module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.
Fig.1
The DIMM socket has a notch, so the DIMM memory module can
only fit in one direction. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically
into the DIMM socket. Then push it down.
Fig.2
Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM sockets to lock
the DIMM module.
Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the DIMM
module.
