l Installing three memory modules is not supported.
Table 6-1. Sample Memory Module Configurations
Installing Memory Modules
1. Open the system. See "Opening the System" in Troubleshooting Your System."
2. Locate the memory module sockets. See Figure6-1.
3. Press the ejectors on the memory module socket down and out, as shown in Figure6-8, to allow the memory module to be inserted into the socket.
4. Align the memory module's edge connector with the alignment keys of the memory module socket, and insert the memory module in the socket.
5. Press down on the memory module with your thumbs while pulling up on the ejectors with your index fingers 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.
6. Repeat step2 through step5 of this procedure to install the remaining memory modules. See Table6-1 for installing the total desired memory.
7. Close the system. See "Closing the System" in "Troubleshooting Your System."
8. (Optional) Press <F2> 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.
9. If the value is incorrect, one or more of the memory modules may not be installed properly. Repeat step1 through step8 of this procedure, checking to
ensure that the memory modules are firmly seated in their sockets.
10. Run the system memory test in the system diagnostics. See "Running the System Diagnostics."
