To maintain system stability, don’t change any of DRAM parameters in BIOS setup
to upgrade your system performance without acquiring technical information.
Memory frequency / CPU FSB synchronization
ROBO-8714VG2A support different memory frequencies depending on the CPU
front side bus and the type of DDR DIMM.
CPU FSB
Memory Frequency
800MHz 400/333*MHz
533MHz 333*/266MHz
400MHz 266MHz
Note:
When using 800MHz FSB CPU, DDR DIMMs may run at 320MHz (not 333MHz) due
to chipset limitation.
3.3 CompactFlash
Card
ROBO-8714VG2A reserves one Type II CompactFlash socket for installing
CompactFlash card up to 1GB.
Installing CF
1) To protect your card, always hold it by the edges. Holding the center of the card
probably won’t damage it, but holding the card by the edges provides an extra
measure of protection.
2) Slide CompactFlash card into the socket.
3) If CompactFlash card doesn’t slide into the socket easily, don’t try to force it. It
won’t fit if you install it backwards. Turn it around and try inserting it again.
WARNING
1) Keep CompactFlash card away from direct sunlight, moisture, and magnetic
fields.
2) The True IDE mode does not support hot insertion and removal because of the
probable disruption of signals on the system bus.
