The
AZZA
366 MAINBOARD SERIES
Page 15
2.4.3. PCI Slots
These boards come with five PCI slots. They are located on the left hand side of the
board. Both PCI and PCI expansion cards may require IRQ’s. This mainboard complies
with Plug and Play (PnP) specifications. Whenever a PnP compliant card is added the sys-
tem will automatically be configured and the IRQ’s will be assigned automatically.
When you are inserting your PCI card make sure that the pins are correctly aligned. When
the pins are properly aligned with the hole’s in the slot, push down gently.
2.4.4. AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Slot
AGP is a dedicated bus slot. It operates at 66 MHz and transfers data at a rate up to 106
MB/s. This allows 3D applications to run more smoothly. The 366 mainboards each come
with one AGP slot. These slots are able to support 1x, 2x and 4x AGP cards.

NOTE: “Out Of Memory” Error Message
If you have installed more than 512 MB of RAM and are running Microsoft Windows Mil-
lennium Edition, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 98 or Windows 95 you may ex-
perience memory problems. Two symptoms of these problems are being unable to run
an MS-DOS session while you are running Windows or the computer may stop respond-
ing while Windows is starting.
There are three possible solutions to this problem:
1)
Reduce the amount of memory Vcache uses to 512 MB or less by altering the Max-
FileCache setting in the System.ini file.
2)
Use the System Configuration Utility to reduce the amount of memory Windows
uses to 512 MB or less.
3)
Reduce the memory installed on your computer to 512 MB or less.
This problem can also occur if an Advanced Graphic Port (AGP) video adapter is used.
