Bank 2, 3 (DIMM2)	256MB, 512MB, 1GB	256MB ~ 1GB
	Total System Memory	256MB ~ 2GB

NOTE: Usually there is no hardware or BIOS setup require after adding or removing memory modules, but you will have to clear the CMOS memory first if any memory module related problem occurs.

Power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before installing or removing memory modules.

1.Locate the DIMM slot on the board.

2.Hold two edges of the DIMM module carefully, keep away of touching its connectors.

3.Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot.

4.Firmly press the module into the slots until the ejector tabs at both sides of the slot automatically snaps into the mounting notch. Do not force the DIMM module in with extra force as the DIMM module only fit in one direction.
