2.6 Installing a DIMM

The system motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual

Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets.

The following figure illustrates the location of the sockets:

• Installing DDR DIMMS other than the recommended configurations

may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of

the recommended configurations in the table on the next page.

• Install only

identical identical

identical (the same type and size) DDR DIMM in DIMM1

and DIMM2.

• Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum

compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules from

the same vendor.

• The total memory detected by the system depends on the onboard

VGA shared memory setting.
