To drain CMOS RAM power, perform the following steps:
Step Action
1 Turn off power to the computer.
2 Remove the computer cover.
3 Remove the jumper from pins 1-2 of JP10.
4 Place a shorting bridge on pins 2-3 of JP10.
5 Wait for five seconds.
6 Remove the shorting bridge from pins 2-3 of JP10.
7 Put the shorting bridge back on pins 1-2 of JP10.
8 Turn on computer power again.
Since you drained power from CMOS RAM, all system configuration information has been erased.
You must now re-enter the system configuration information by running AMIBIOS Setup.
You must then reboot the computer, run AMIBIOS Setup, and restore all system configuration
information.
Step 2 Install Memory
Locate the DIMM slot(s) you will be using. See the Memory Configuration section located in
Chapter Two, Hardware Installation of the Olympus III User's Guide for more information.
Match the DIMM module and DIMM slot so that the notches align properly. Insert the module by
sliding it straight down into the slot. Using your thumbs, press down on the module until the tabs
lock in place.

Step 1 Unpack the Olympus III
Inspect the cardboard carton for obvious damage. If damaged, call 770-246-8600. Leave it in its
original packing. Perform all unpacking and installation procedures on a ground-connected
anti-static mat.
Clear the CMOS and install the CPU before placing the motherboard in the chassis.
JP10 is a 3-pin berg that can be used to erase the contents of CMOS RAM, where all system
configuration information is stored.
Before you change JP10 from the default setting (1-2), turn off the power supply using the
mechanical switch (not the soft-off power button.) This switch is normally located on the power
supply. If there is no switch, remove the AC cord going to the power supplies.
