Install The Memory Modules - PCchips M771LMR 1.x Manual

Install the Memory Modules

For this mainboard, you must use 168-pin 3.3V non-buffered Dual In-line
Memory Modules (DIMMs). The memory chips must be standard or
registered SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory).
The memory bus can run at 100 MHz or 133 MHz. If your processor
operates over a 100/133 MHz system bus, you must install PC-100 or
PC133 memory that also operates over a 100/133 MHz bus.
There are two slots for memory modules. You must install alt least one
module, and it makes no difference which slot you use to install the
module. Each model can be installed with from 8 MB to 256 MB of
memory, so total memory capacity is 512 MB. The mainboard supports
memory chips that have EC (Error Correction) or ECC (Error Correction
Code).
1. Locate the DIMM slots on the mainboard.

2. The DIMM slots are keyed with notches and the DIMMs are keyed
with cut-outs so that they can only be installed correctly. Check that
the cut-outs on the DIMM module edge connector match the notches
in the DIMM slot.
3. Push the latches on each side of the DIMM slot down.
4. Install the DIMM module into the slot and press it carefully but firmly
down so that it seats correctly. The latches at either side of the slot
