DIMMs are notched on the bottom so that they cannot be inserted incorrectly.
1. Insert the DIMM into the socket, gently but firmly. You hear a click as it is seated,
and the latch on the end of the socket moves up.
2. Check to be sure both sockets in the bank are full. DIMMs must be installed in pairs.
You have finished installing memory and are ready to replace the system module.
