2. System Memory (SIMM and DIMM)
This motherboard supports four 72-pin SIMMs (Single Inline Memory Modules) of
4MB, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, or 64MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 256MB.
The DRAM can be either 60ns or 70ns Fast Page Mode (FPM) (Asymmetric or
Symmetric), Enhanced Data Output (EDO), or Burst Enhanced Data Output (BEDO).
SIMMs must be installed in pairs so that each bank contains two of the same size
memory modules. A new feature is the support of Dual Inline Memory Modules
(DIMMs). One slot is available for a 5.0Volt (power level) Enhanced Data Output
(EDO) DRAM of either 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128MB. Maximum memory of SIMMs
and/or DIMMs must be 384MB or less.

IMPORTANT:
•
•
The same size and type (FPM, EDO, BEDO) of memory must be installed in
pairs so that memory modules are not mixed in each bank.

•
The DIMM Slot does not support any SDRAM DIMM modules.
•
The DIMM Slot does not support 3.3V EDO DIMM modules.
•
Do not use SIMM memory modules with more than 24 chips per module. SIMM
memory modules with more than 24 chips exceed the design specifications of
the memory subsystem and will be unstable.

Memory speed setup is required through “Auto Configuration” in BIOS Chipset
Setup of the BIOS SOFTWARE. If both 60ns and 70ns memory are used, you
must set Auto Configuration to 70ns.
