HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
The motherboard is based on the VIA® Apollo Pro 133 Chipset. The chipset is
a highly integrated solution enabling a high performance motherboard and
desktop design for the Pentium® II/III processor. The main board supports
standard DIMM module, 66/100/133MHz DIMM module or Registered DIMM
module. The features on board include Super-I/O, Ultra DMA33/66(optional)
for PCI bus master IDE, AGP 2.0 compliance, PCI 2.1 compliance, USB, VRM
8.4 compliance, ECC, on-board sound system (optional).
