Hardware Setup
Memory Configuration
The mainboard supports two banks of
72-pin SIMM modules and two
strips of 3.3V Unbuffered DIMM modules.
The mainboard requires
SIMM of at least 70ns access time.
The mainboard supports
from 4 to 128 Mbytes
with no other restrictions
on memory configurations. You can install SIMM in any combination
without having to rely on a memory configuration table. Memory
configuration is thus Ò
Table-Free
Ó in any SIMM bank. You must install
two strips of SIMM modules to complete a bank.
