[. . . ] Memory Modules Installation Guide Use this guide along with your computer user guide to install your memory upgrade. Some computer manufacturers may void the warranty, if the system is opened and upgraded by the end user. [. . . ] Remove the Existing Memory Modules, If Necessary: If all memory sockets are populated, you might want to replace the lower capacity memory modules with higher capacity memory modules. To remove the lower capacity memory modules, push the locking tabs away from the modules for DIMMs, or release the SO-DIMMs by pushing the retaining tabs away from the sides of the SO-DIMMs. Some computers require a specific sequence of memory sockets to be populated, based on capacity of the memory modules. Refer to your computer user guide and determine the socket sequence specified for the memory upgrades, if any. Install the Memory Modules in the Sockets: Refer to the illustration below and orient the memory to the socket so that the key notches of the memory module align with the keys of the socket. Pushing the memory module into the socket with the wrong orientation might damage the memory modules or the sockets. For DIMMs, push the memory by pressing the top edge straight down into the socket; the locking tabs will automatically close to secure the memory. For SO-DIMMs, fit the memory module into the socket at a 30-degree angle, and gently push it into the socket until 75% of the edge-connector is covered; then pivot the module into the socket until the retaining tabs click into place to secure the memory module. Make sure the module is firmly seated in the socket. Installing New DIMMs for Desktop/Server Computers 1.
