Resource Settings

3.8 DRAM Installation

The S1571 uses a 64-bit data path from memory to CPU and can
accommodate up to 256MB of RAM.  The mainboard supports Fast
Page Mode, and EDO (Extended Data Out) 72 pin SIMMs.  SDRAMs
(Synchronous) are also supported in the DIMM slots. DIMMs must be of
the 

unbuffered

 variety.  All installed memory will be automatically

detected so there is no need to set jumpers.  The TX chipset can cache
up to 64MB of RAM.

w

SIMM modules must be installed in pairs.

w

Each pair of SIMMs must be of the same size and type.

w

The mainboard supports 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16MBx32 SIMM modules.

w

SIMM banks 0, 1, and 2 can use either double- or single-sided SIMMs.

w

Two SIMMs or one unbuffered DIMM must be installed for the system

   to POST.

w

The mainboard supports 1, 2 and 4MBx64 DIMM modules.

w

SIMM bank 0 and DIMM bank 0 cannot be used at the same time.

w

SIMM bank 1 and DIMM bank 1 cannot be used at the same time.

w

You can use SIMM bank 0 with DIMM bank 1.

w

You can use SIMM bank 1 with DIMM bank 0 (see figure below).

The shaded boxes represent occupied slots.
