To install a DIMM

Note: Observe the “Installation precautions” on page 43 when installing or removing a computer component. Also, make sure that you have removed the computer cover (see page 45).

1.Open the clips on the socket.

2.Align the DIMM with the socket (a).

3.Press the DIMM into the socket until the clips lock onto the DIMM

(b).

Note: The DIMM sockets are slotted to ensure proper installation. If you insert a DIMM but it does not fit easily into the socket, you may have inserted it incorrectly. Turn the DIMM and try to insert it again.

To reconfigure your computer

Your computer automatically detects the amount of memory installed. Run the BIOS utility to view the new value for total system memory and make a note of it. For more information on BIOS, refer to the Veriton 7200 online guide (see “Accessing the online guide” on page 6).
