CAUTION: Use only Compaq DIMMs. DIMMs from other sources may adversely affect data integrity. Power-On Self-Test (POST) will warn of nonsupported DIMMs.

IMPORTANT: The following guidelines MUST be followed when installing or replacing memory:

Use 133-MHz, 64-, 128-, 256-, 512-MB or 1-GB registered SDRAM DIMMs, 3.3 volts, 72 bits wide, with Error Correction Code (ECC).

Any combination of the above modules can be used.

Install SDRAM DIMM modules one at a time in sequential order, starting with DIMM slot 1.

Install DIMMs of the same speed. Do not install DIMM modules supporting different speeds.

Install DIMMs only in one direction. Ensure that the notch on the module matches the tab on the DIMM slot and that the module is fully inserted and properly seated.
