Hi Greg,

On the NVRAM there is a little dimple on the top surface near one of the
corners. The pin nearest that corner is pin one. The socket on the
motherboard has a little half moon shape on one of the short sides.

Insert the chip so that the dimple is at the same end of the socket as the
half moon and you are all set.

Other chips and sockets have similar markings to mark pin 1 and ant its
orientation.
