1.9.1Installing Memory
Special care must be taken when installing a SIMM module. The following figure shows
how the curve in the SIMM module must align with pin-1 on the 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 module installed in the connector, stop and take a moment to examine both the
SIMM and the connector. Make sure you are installing the "notched" end of 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-174 Roadrunner board illustrations.
