Removing SlMMs

If you need to remove SIMMs from your computer, have your dealer do it for you or follow the steps below. If you remove them yourself, check the table on page 6-14 to be sure you remove SIMMs from the correct sockets.

Follow these steps to remove SIMMs:

1.Turn the memory card on your work surface so the connectors at the bottom of the board are toward you.

2.Remove SIMMs from the right sockets first. Use your fingers or two small screwdrivers to pull away the tabs that secure the SIMM at each end. Be careful not to pull the tabs too far, or they may break.

As you pull away the tabs, the SIMM falls to the right at an angle. Release the tabs and carefully remove the SIMM from the socket.

3.Repeat step 2 for each SIMM you need to remove.
