Installing Memory Modules - ECS L4S5MG/GL Manual

Installing Memory Modules

This mainboard accommodates 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered Double Data Rate
(DDR) SDRAM memory modules. The memory chips must be standard or
registered SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory). The
memory bus runs at 166 MHz.
The mainboard accommodates two memory modules. You must install at least
one module in any of the two slots. Each module can be installed with 32 MB
to 1 GB of memory; total memory capacity is 2 GB.
Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until
you are ready to install it on the mainboard. Handle the modules only by
their edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always wear
a grounding strap when you handle the modules.
Installation Procedure
Refer to the following to install the memory modules.
1. This mainboard supports unbuffered DDR SDRAM only. Do not attempt to
insert any other type of DDR SDRAM into the slots.
2. Push the latches on each side of the DIMM slot down.
3. Align the memory module with
the slot. The DIMM slots are
keyed with notches and the
DIMMs are keyed with cutouts
so that they can only be i n -
stalled correctly.
4. Check that the cutouts on the
DIMM module edge connector
match the notches in the
DIMM slot.
5. Install the DIMM module into
the slot and press it firmly
down until it seats correctly.
The slot latches are levered
upwards and latch on to the
edges of the DIMM.
6. Install any remaining DIMM modules.
