MORE INFORMATION

Additional things to check on the RAMpage board:

1. Look at the soldered side of the board and find a printed circuit board part number ending with -302C or -302D.



2. If the part number ends in -302D or higher, you have a good board.



3. If the part number ends in -302C and there is a wire jumper running along the back of the board, you have a good board.



4. If you have a -302C board without a jumper, you must have your board upgraded.



5. If you have a board earlier than -302C, it will probably not work correctly and should be upgraded.
