Main Memory 
 CAUTION 
Remove the AGP video card before installing or upgrading memory to avoid interference with the 
memory retention mechanism. 
 
NOTE 
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel
®
 SDRAM memory specifications, the board should 
be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure.  If your 
memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a notification to this effect on the screen at 
power up.  The BIOS will attempt to configure the memory controller for normal operation.  
However, DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency. 
 
NOTE 
Because the main system memory is also used as video memory, the board requires a 100 MHz 
SDRAM DIMM even though the host bus frequency is 66 MHz.  It is highly recommended that an 
SPD DIMM be used, since this allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to 
accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance.  If non-SPD memory is installed, 
the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability 
may be impacted. 
The boards supports 168-pin SDRAM DIMMs as defined below: 
•  168-pin SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs) with gold-plated contacts  
•  Three DIMM slots are provided for flexible memory configurations 
•  133 MHz SDRAM up to two double-sided DIMMs, or one double-sided DIMM and two 
single-sided DIMMs 
•  100 MHz SDRAM up to three double-sided DIMMs 
•  Minimum system memory:  32 MB 
•  Maximum system memory:  512 MB 
 
NOTE 
The BIOS cannot determine DIMM size or type when not initialized.  If more than 512 MB system 
memory is installed, the BIOS displays a message at boot indicating memory above 512 MB has 
not been initialized.  The message indicates that additional information is available in Setup.  The 
first time the BIOS detects this condition, a pause follows the message with the option to enter  
Setup or to <ESC> and continue to boot.  The message continues to be displayed at boot time as 
long as the condition exists, however, the BIOS will not pause on subsequent detection.  Setup 
displays the installed memory configuration and shows memory above 512 MB as “not 
initialized.”
