MSI Reminds You...
1. Confirm if your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your system.
2. Check the information in PC Health Status of H/W Monitor in BIOS for the CPU temperature.
3. Please note that the mating/unmating durability of the CPU is 20 cycles. Therefore we suggest
you do not plug/unplug the CPU too often.
Memory
The mainboard provides four 240-pin DIMM slots for unbuffered DDR II 400 / 533 / 667 / 800
SDRAM (DDR II 800 is only for Athlon 64 X2), and supports the memory size up to 8GB. To
operate properly, at least one DIMM slot must be installed.
Install at least one Memory module on one of 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 II Modules
1. The DDR II DIMM has only one notch on the center of slot. The memory module will only fit in
the right orientation.
2. Insert the 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.
