Memory Population Rules - MSI MS-5156 Manual

2.3-3 Memory Population Rules

1. Make sure that the SIMM banks are using the same type and equal size
density memory.
2. To operate properly, at least two 72-pin SIMM module must be installed in
the same bank or one 168-pin DIMM module must be installed. The
system cannot operate with only one 72-pin SIMM module.
3. This mainboard supports Table Free memory, so memory can be installed
on (SIMM1 + SIMM2),(SIMM3 + SIMM4), (DIMM1), or (DIMM 2), in
any order.
4. If you use DIMM with 64Mbit SDRAM, then Bank2.3
(SIMM1+SIMM2) can not be use.
5. DIMM and SIMM cannot be used at the same time. Only one kind can be
used at a time. If you want to use both of them you must use a 5V
DIMM.
