Insufficient air flow inside the system may damage the motherboard components, and hardware monitoring errors can occur if you fail to plug this connector. These are not jumpers! DO NOT place jumper caps on the fan connectors. Data Modul AG - www.data-modul.com...
A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 SO-DIMM but has a 204-pin footprint compared to the 200-pin DDR2 DIMM. DDR3 SO-DIMMs are notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 SO-DIMM socket. The following figure illustrates the location of the sockets: IX57QM/IX55HM Data Modul AG - www.data-modul.com...
Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than 1 GB system memory when you installed one 1 GB DDR3 memory modules. Data Modul AG - www.data-modul.com...
A DDR3 SO-DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT force a SO-DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the SO-DIMM. The DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets do not support DDR2 SO-DIMMs. DO NOT install DDR2 SO-DIMMs to the DDR3 SO-DIMM socket. IX57QM/IX55HM Data Modul AG - www.data-modul.com...
Simultaneously press the retaining clips outward to unlock the SO-DIMM. Remove the SO-DIMM from the socket. Support the SO-DIMM lightly with your fingers when pressing the retaining clips. The SO-DIMM might get damaged when it flips out with extra force. Data Modul AG - www.data-modul.com...
