2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM) This motherboard is equipped with two 184-pin DDR (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots and two 240-pin DDRII (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots. 1. It is not allowed to install DDR into DDRII slot or DDRII into DDR slot;otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged. 2. It is not allowed to install both DDR and DDRII to this motherboard at the same time; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged. Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or the system components. Step 1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward. Step 2. Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break on the slot. notch break notch break The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the slot at incorrect orientation. Step 3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated. 13

1.
It is not allowed to install DDR into DDRII slot or DDRII into DDR
slot;otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.
2.
It is not allowed to install both DDR and DDRII to this motherboard
at the same time; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be
damaged.
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or
removing DIMMs or the system components.
Step 1.
Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2.
Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break
on the slot.
The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent
