Installation process
1.
Make sure that you are working in a static-safe environment.
Remove any plastic bags or papers from your work space.
2.
Turn your computer power button off, and then unplug the
power cord. For notebooks, remove the battery.
3.
Discharge residual power by pressing the power button again.
4.
Refer to your computer manual when removing the computer
cover.
5.
Ground yourself by touching any of the unpainted metal
surfaces on your computer’s frame. (This will remove any static
electricity from your body or clothing.)
6.
Locate your computer’s memory expansion slots (consult
your computer manual). Do not use any tools in the removal
or installation of memory modules.
7.
Insert your memory upgrade according to the illustrations
in this guide. Align the notch(es) on the module with
the notch(es) in the slot, and then press down until the clips
on the slot snap into place. (It can take 20 to 30 pounds of
pressure to install a module.) Fill your slots starting with
the largest density (put the largest module in bank 0).
8.
Once the module(s) have been installed, replace the
computer cover and reconnect the power cord or battery.
The installation is now complete.
Helpful hints & troubleshooting tips
If your system does not boot, check the following:
1.
If you receive an error message or hear a series of beeps,
your system may not be recognizing the new memory.
Remove and reinstall the modules to ensure they are securely
seated in the sockets.
2.
If your system won’t boot, check all of the connections inside
your computer. It is easy to bump a cable and pull it out of
its connector, disabling devices such as your hard drive or
CD-ROM. If your system still won’t reboot, contact Crucial
Technical Support.
3.
When restarting your system, you may get a message
prompting you to update the configuration settings. Refer
to your computer manual for information. If you are still
unsure, please call Crucial Technical Support for assistance.
4.
If you get a memory mismatch message, follow the prompts
to enter the Setup menu, and then select Save and Exit. (This
is not an error—some systems must do this to update the
system settings.)
If you encounter any of the following problems, please
contact Crucial Technical Support:
1.
Your module doesn’t seem to fit; do not force it into
the socket.
2.
Your system is recognizing only half of the new module’s
memory.
