Removing DIMMs<br />
40<br />
To remove a DIMM, follow these steps:<br />
1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 27.<br />
2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off the computer.<br />
3. Remove the AC power cord from the computer.<br />
4. Remove the computer’s cover.<br />
5. If a full length PCI Express graphics card is installed in the PCI Express x16<br />
connector, remove the card to gain access to the DIMMs.<br />
6. Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the DIMM socket. The DIMM pops<br />
out of the socket.<br />
7. Hold the DIMM by the edges, lift it away from the socket, and store it in an<br />
anti-static package.<br />
8. Reinstall the PCI Express graphics card if one was removed in Step 5 and<br />
reconnect any other parts you removed or disconnected to reach the DIMMs.<br />
9. Replace the computer’s cover and reconnect the AC power cord.<br />
Installing and Removing PCI Express x16<br />
Graphics Cards<br />
Installing a PCI Express x16 Graphics Card<br />
CAUTION<br />
Before installing a PCI Express x16 graphics card, make sure that the tabs on the<br />
DIMM sockets are in the upright position (closed); otherwise, they may be damaged by<br />
the PCI Express card during installation.<br />
CAUTION<br />
When installing a PCI Express card, ensure that the card is fully seated in the PCI<br />
Express connector before you power on the system. If the card is not fully seated in<br />
the connector, an electrical short may result across the connector pins. Depending on<br />
the over-current protection of the power supply, certain <strong>Desktop</strong> <strong>Board</strong> components<br />
and/or traces may be damaged.
