2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides
three
168-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES
(DIMM) sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size of
64MB to maximum memory size of 3.0GB SDR SDRAM.

NOTE! Make sure the installed memory are PC133 SDRAM support 133MHz memory
clock, otherwise the system may hang during startup.
Generally, installing SDR SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you
can refer to figure 2-4 to see what a 168-Pin PC133 SDR 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 SDR SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, use only PC133-
compliant SDR 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 SDR Modules are not PC133-compliant,
set the SDR SDRAM clock to 100MHz to ensure system stability.
