If there is a Level 2 cache card installed in your
computer, it will be located in the L2 Cache Slot,
the shorter slot located in the middle of the DRAM
DIMMs (Figure 1).

For these models, the logic board must first be
removed from the computer in order to gain access
to the Level 2 cache card. Once the logic board is
removed, the Level 2 cache card is located towards
the outer edge of the logic board populated with
DRAM (memory) DIMMs (Figure 2). If there is a
Level 2 cache card installed in your computer, it will
be located in the L2 Cache Slot (the shorter slot
located in the middle of the DRAM DIMMs). After
the Level 2 cache card is removed, reinstall the logic
board and proceed with resetting the CUDA switch
on the logic board and the installation of the
Crescendo/PCI card.

card is located towards the outer edge of the logic
board populated with DRAM (memory) DIMMs
(Figure 3). If there is a Level 2 cache card installed in
your computer, it will be located in the L2 Cache
Slot (the shorter slot located in the middle of the
DRAM DIMMs).
