- Remove any cards or internal components necessary to give yourself unobstructed access to RAM sockets.
- Pick up your SIMM that is single in-line memory module or DIMM that is dual in-line memory module by the ends without touching pins or chips.
- If adding a SIMM, find the notched end and turn the SIMM so that it is parallel to the existing RAM card. Insert the SIMM or DIMM into the socket.
- Use slight pressure to keep a SIMM from backing out while rotating the module to an upright position perpendicular to the motherboard.
- To be very careful when you insert a SIMM or DIMM. Make sure that the small holes on each side of a SIMM fit into holders.
- Try to pull the module out to ensure it is locked in position.
- Replace all the internal components.
- Leave the cover off and reconnect the monitor, keyboard and mouse.
- Now turn on this new computer setup.
