work properly to protect the CPU from overheating.

power cord from grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU.
Memory
The mainboard provides two 184-pin unbuffered DDR200/DDR266/DDR333 DDR SDRAM, and
supports the memory size up to 2GB. To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must be
installed. (For the updated supporting memory modules, please visit
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_trp_list.php )
Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Memory modules can be installed on the slots in
any order. You can install either single- or double-sided modules to meet your own needs.
Installing DDR Modules:
1. The DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The module will only fit in the
right orientation.
2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the
golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the socket.
3. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close.
