8 Press down on the memory module with your thumbs to lock the memory module into the socket. When the memory module is properly seated in the socket, the ejectors on the memory module socket align with the ejectors on the other sockets that have memory modules installed. 9 Repeat step 5 through step 8 of this procedure to install the remaining memory modules. See Table 3-3. 10 Replace the system board shroud. See "Installing the System Board Shroud" on page 106. 11 Close the system. See "Closing the System" on page 83. 12 Start up the system, press to enter the System Setup program, and check the System Memory setting on the main System Setup screen. The system should have already changed the value to reflect the newly installed memory. 13 If the value is incorrect, one or more of the memory modules may not be installed properly. Repeat step 2 through step 12 of this procedure, checking to ensure that the memory modules are firmly seated in their sockets. 14 Run the system memory test in the system diagnostics. See "Running the Embedded System Diagnostics" on page 164. Removing Memory Modules WARNING: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system cover and access any of the components inside the system. Before you begin this procedure, review the safety instructions that came with the system. WARNING: The memory modules are hot to the touch for some time after the system has been powered down. Allow time for the memory modules to cool before handling them. Handle the memory modules by the card edges and avoid touching the components on the memory module. CAUTION: To ensure proper system cooling, memory-module blanks must be installed in any memory socket that is not occupied. Remove memory-module blanks only if you intend to install memory in those sockets. Installing System Components 125
