Figure 4- 19 Removing memory modules (SIMM)
Installing Memory Modules (SIMM)
- Carefully slip a SIMM at a 45-degree angle into a socket making sure that the curved edge indicating the pin 1 of the SIMM matches pin 1 of the socket.
Note: A SIMM fits only in one direction. If you slip in a SIMM but does not completely fit, you may have inserted it the wrong
way. Reverse the orientation of the SIMM.
- Gently push the SIMM to a vertical position until the pegs of the socket slip into the holes on the SIMM, and the holding clips lock the SIMM into position. The SIMM should be at a 90-degree angle with the system board when installed.
