There must be at least one memory bank populated to ensure normal operation.
Use the following the recommendations for installing memory. (See Figure 1
on page 5 for the location of the memory slots.)
One DIMM: Install into slot 0. You can install the DIMM into any slot,

have the DIMMs in adjacent slots.
Four DIMMS: Install into slots 0, 1, 2, and 3.
