6/8 FT1200 OWNER’S HANDBOOK
Turn off the computer and unplug all power cords. Take suitable
anti-static precautions and remove the main system side panel.
Detailed instructions for this are given in chapter 1.
CautionCaution
If you are unfamiliar with the recommended anti-static precautions,
refer to the antistatic section at the rear of this handbook.
To install a DIMM
1. Take the module out of its anti-static packaging. Hold it by its
ends and avoid touching the metal contacts.
2. Align with and place carefully above the chosen socket,
ensuring that the socket end clips are not obstructing.
3. Pushing gently on its top corners, press the DIMM into the
socket and make sure the two end clips are snapped into place.
Do not use excessive force
.
4. If the module will not fit easily, remove it and start again.
5. Repeat these steps for each module to be installed.
NoteNote
It is not important which memory socket is used first, but it is usual practice
to start with the lowest number bank available (socket MM1).
