7.1Installing Memory
Special care must be taken when installing a SIMM module. The figure below shows
how the curve in the SIMM module must align with pin-1 on the Roadrunner’s SIMM
connector.
The SIMM must be inserted into the connector at a slight angle and after you feel the
SIMM module settle into the connector, you rotate the SIMM into an upright position, as
shown in the illustration. When the SIMM is properly positioned, the metal retainer clips
at each end of the connector will click into position, locking the SIMM in place.
Very little force is required to install a SIMM module. If you’re having problems getting
the SIMM module installed in the connector, stop and take a moment to examine both
the SIMM module and the connector. Make sure you are installing the SIMM as shown
in the illustration.
Once the memory is installed, you must set the memory configuration jumpers based on
the capacity of the SIMM module. A table showing how these jumpers are configured is
shown in the AM-172 and AM-174 Roadrunner board illustrations.
