6.1.3 Installing Memory
The reference kit includes one 1 GB DDR2-800 DIMM. Use the following procedure to
install the DIMM:
1. Ensure the tabs on the slot are open or rotated outward from the slot.
2. Line up the first DIMM above the DIMM 0 socket (the DIMM is keyed so that it only
fits in the slot in one orientation). The DIMM 0 socket is the furthest DIMM socket
from the processor. See Figure 20.
3. Firmly, but carefully insert the DIMM into the slot until the tabs close.
Note: If only a single DIMM is used, always install it in the DIMM 0 socket.
Caution: Do NOT bend the board when installing the memory. Several components are located
near the memory slots, and excessive board flex may lead to solder joint failure.
