Important
- Dual-channel DDRII works ONLY in the 5 combinations listed in the table
shown in the previous page.
- Please select the identical memory modules to install on the dual channel,
and DO NOT install three memory modules on three DIMMs, or it may
cause some failure.
- Always insert the memory modules into the GREEN slots first, and it is
strongly recommended not to insert the memory modules into the OR-
ANGE slots while the GREEN slots are left empty.
- Due to the South Bridge resource deployment, the system density will only
be detected up to 7+GB (not full 8GB) when each DIMM is installed with an
1GB memory module.

Installing DDRII Modules

1. The DDRII 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.
Important
You can barely see the golden finger if the module is properly inserted in the
socket.
