Install the Memory Modules
For this mainboard, you must use 168-pin 3.3V non-buffered Dual In-line
Memory Modules (DIMMs). The memory chips must be standard or
registered SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory).
The memory bus can run at 66 MHz , 100 MHz or 133MHz. If your
processor operates over a 100 MHz system bus, you must install PC-
100 or PC133 memory that also operates over a 100 MHz bus. If you
install a processor that operates over a 66 MHz bus, you can install
memory chips that operate at 66 MHz.
You must install at least one memory module and the first memory
module should be installed in slot DIMM1, the second in slot DIMM2 and
the third in slot DIMM3. If the modules use standard SDRAM, the
maximum capacity of each module is 128MB. if the modules use
registered SDRAM, the maximum capacity is 256MB
The mainboard supports memory chips that have EC (Error Correction)
or ECC (Error Correction Code). If you install more than one module, the
modules can have different capacities, but the memory chips should all
be the same type.
1. Locate the DIMM slots on the mainboard.
2. The DIMM slots are keyed with notches and the DIMMs are keyed
with cut-outs so that they can only be installed correctly. Check that
the cut-outs on the DIMM module edge connector match the notches
in the DIMM slot.
