Intel D102GGC2 manual Installing and Removing Memory, Installing DIMMs

Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components

Installing and Removing Memory

NOTE

To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel SDRAM memory specifications, the boards require DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. You can access the PC Serial Presence Detect Specification at: http://www.intel.com/technology/memory/ddr/specs/dda18c32_64_128x72ag_a.pdf

The desktop board has two 240-pin DIMM sockets arranged as DIMM 0 and DIMM 1.

Installing DIMMs

NOTE

Install memory in the DIMM sockets prior to installing a PCI Express x16 card to avoid interference with the memory retention mechanism.

To make sure you have the correct DIMM, place it on the illustration in Figure 13 showing the DDR2 DIMM. All the notches should match the DDR2 DIMM.
