Simm - DFI G586IPV User Manual

SIMM

The SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets are divided into two
banks on the system board, Bank 0 and Bank 1. Each bank consists of
2 SIMM sockets.
You will need either 2 or 4 pieces of SIM modules, depending on the
amount of memory you intend to install. The system board will not work
if you install 1 or 3 pieces. Make sure you insert the same type of
SIMMs in one bank. You can install SIMMs in either of the banks, Bank
0 or Bank 1, but you must populate one bank first before going to the
next bank.
The G586IPV system board can support 8MB to 128MB of memory us-
ing 1MBx32, 2MBx32, 4MBx32, or 8MBx32 72-pin SIMMs. The table
below shows the supported SIM modules and their corresponding
memory sizes.
The table below summarizes the bank locations and modules needed
for the corresponding memory sizes.
