How to Install Memory

The motherboard's two memory module sockets are arranged as banks 0 and 1. The socket closest
to the processor is for bank 0, as shown in Figure 11. The memory module requirements are listed
in the Main Memory section on page 10.
When adding memory, be aware that:


If only one memory module is being installed, you can install it in either memory module
socket.


You can use different densities of memory modules in different banks.


The BIOS detects the size and type of installed memory.
Figure 11shows the location of the memory module sockets.
CAUTION
A Continuity RIMM must be installed in every unused memory socket or the system will not boot.
