Hardware Setup
Memory Configuration
The mainboard supports one bank of
72-pin 5V FPM/EDO/Burst EDO
DRAM (SIMM), and three strips of 168-pin 3.3V/5V Unbuffered
DIMM modules.
The mainboard requires SIMM of at least 70ns access
time.
The mainboard supports SIMM bank and DIMM banks from 4 to 128
MB with no other restrictions on memory configurations. You can install
memory in any combination without having to rely on a memory
configuration table. Memory configuration is thus Ò
Table-Free
Ó in any
memory bank. You must install two SIMM modules to complete a bank.

Note:
Do not install FPM or EDO SIMM/DIMM when you already
installed SDRAM type of DIMM.
RAM Bank Installation Notice
Due to the RAS line share architecture of ETEQ chipset, do not install
SIMM bank with DIMM1. All other combinations are acceptable.
