2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides two 240-pin DDR DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES
(DIMM) sides for DDR memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 64MB
to maximum memory size of 2.0GB DDR SDRAM.
Valid Memory Configurations
Bank 240-pin DDR DIMM PCS Total Memory
Bank 0, 1 (DDR1) DDRII667/DDRII 533 DDR DRAM Module X1 64MB∼1.0GB
Bank 2, 3 (DDR2) DDRII667/DDRII553 DDR DRAM Module X1 64MB∼1.0GB
Total System Memory (Max. 2.0GB) X2 64MB∼2.0GB
Generally, installing DDR SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can refer
to figure 2-4 to see what a 240-pin DDR SDRAM module looks like.
**If only one memory MODULE is used, you should install it in the DIMM2 .
DIMM2 (BANK2+ BANK3) DIMM1 (BANK0+ BANK1)
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!
Duo to
the DDR SDRAM CLOCK is set at 266 / 333MHz that uses only DDR2
667/533- compliant DDR Modules. When this motherboard operate at 166Mhz, most
system will not even boot if non-compliant modules are used because of the strict
timing issues, if your DDR Modules are not DDR2 667 / 533-compliant, set the
SDRAM clock to 333MHz to ensure system stability.
2-5 Expansion Cards
WARNING! Turn off your power when adding or removing expansion cards or other system
components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your
motherboard and expansion cards.
2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation
1. Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any necessary hardware or
software setting for your expansion card such as jumpers.
2. Remove your computer’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use.
