ground strap if ya got one. (Safetee first!)
6) If she's an oldie but a goodie there will be a pair 'o white plastic
tabs right square in the middle to slip the memory tray out. As I recall
that thang hangs in there downside up with the memory on the tha bottom.
6b) If she's a newer model the memory will be up top near the back.
7) In any case fill the slots in pairs of like sticks. starting next to
the currently installed ones.
8) Buttin 'er back up.
9) Run the smoke test.
