2.4 Configuring the System Memory
Pin1
Warning: This motherboard does not support Registered
SDRAMs and EDO DRAMs.
Warning: If you install two double-side SDRAMs, the possible
combinations are DIMM1&DIMM2 or DIMM1&DIMM3.
DIMM modules can be identified by the following factors:
I. Size: single side, 1Mx64 (8MB), 2Mx64 (16MB), 4Mx64 (32MB), 8Mx64
(64MB), 16Mx64 (128MB), and double side, 1Mx64x2 (16MB), 2Mx64x2
(32MB), 4Mx64x2 (64MB), 8Mx64x2 (128MB).
Tip: Here is a trick to check if your DIMM is single-side or
double-side -- if there are traces connected to golden finger
pin 114 and pin 129 of the DIMM, the DIMM is probably
double-side; otherwise, it is single-side. The following figure
is for your reference.

Hardware Installation
The DIMM types supported are SDRAM
(Synchronous
DRAM)
motherboard has three 168 pin DIMM
sockets (Dual-in-line Memory Module)
that allow you to install system memory
up to 512MB.
In case you install SDRAMs on DIMM2
and DIMM3 at the same time, it is
crucial to identify single/double side.
For this configuration, only single side
SDRAMs are acceptable.
