2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides two 184-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES (DIMM)
And two 168-pin SDRAM Module Socket sites for memory expansion available from
minimum memory size of 64MB to maximum memory size of 2.0GB DDR SDRAM.
Users only can install either 168-pin SDRAM Module or 184-pin DDR DRAM Module at
one time.

Generally, installing SDRAM/ DDR SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very
easy, you can refer to figure 2-4 to see what a 184-Pin PC1600/PC2100 DDR
SDRAM module looks like.

NOTE!
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab
should be locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its
indention on both sides.
WARNING!
For the SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, use only PC2100-compliant
DDR Modules or PC133 compliant SDRAM Modules. When this
motherboard operate at 133Mhz, most system will not even boot if non-
compliant modules are used because of the strict timing issues, if your
DRAM Modules are not PC133/PC2100-compliant, set the SDRAM clock
to 100MHz to ensure system stability.
