Make sure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard as well as the processor. For example, DDR200 and DDR266 memory modules can be used for

FSB=400MHz Intel Xeon processor but only DDR266 memory modules can be used for FSB=533MHz Intel Xeon processor.

Memory Installation Procedure

When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory socket. There should be a key (small indent) on your memory module that fits according to the key in the memory socket. DDR modules and sockets have only one key, which is slightly off -center of the module/socket. The method of installing memory modules is detailed in the following diagrams.

Once the memory modules are firmly seated in the so cket, two clamps on either side will close and secure the module into the socket. Sometimes you may need to close the clamps manually.

To remove the memory module, simply push the clamps outwards until the memory module pops up. Then remove the module .

TIP: When installing memory, a module may require a considerable amount of force to seat properly, although this is very rare. To avoid bending and damaging your motherboard, place it on its anti -static bag and onto a flat surface, then proceed with mem ory installation.

For important memory information, please check Tyan’s web site at www.tyan.com for recommendations.

NOTE

YOU MUST unplug the power supply before performing system hardware changes in order to avoid damaging the board or expansion device.
