HARDWARE INSTALLATION
2-24
1. Supports SDRAM DIMM.
2. To operate properly, at least one 168-pin DIMM module must be in-
stalled.
3. This mainboard supports Table Free memory, so memory can be installed
on DIMM1, DIMM2, or DIMM 3 in any order.
4. Supports 3.3 volt DIMM.
5. The DRAM addressing and the size supported by the mainboard is
shown below:

Table 2.4-1 SDRAM Memory Addressing
Note:
* Both 4M x 4 and 16M x 4 SDRAM device are supported in the form of
registered DIMM only.
* If you used the mainboard onboard VGA, you need to install at least
32MB of SDRAM.
