Installing and Replacing Motherboard Components
How to Remove Memory
To remove a DIMM, follow these steps:
1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" (see page 17).
2. Turn off the computer, disconnect the computer's power cord, and disconnect all external
peripherals.
3. Remove the computer cover and locate the DIMM sockets (see Figure 11).
4. Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the socket. The DIMM pops out of the socket.
5. Hold the DIMM by the edges, lift it away from the socket, and store it in an antistatic package.
