Q: Does the Dimm slot 2 and 3 share each other? Should I orderly install DDR modules?
A: Install System Memory


This motherboard provides three 184-pin DDR DIMM sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 128MB to maximum memory size of 2GB DDR SDRAM (DIMM2 & DIMM3 are sharing).

Table 2-1. Valid Memory Configurations

Bank Memory Module Total Memory
Bank 0, 1 (DIMM1) 128, 256, 512MB, 1GB 128MB ~ 1GB
Bank 2, 3 (DIMM2) 128, 256, 512MB, 1GB 128MB ~ 1GB
Bank 3, 2 (DIMM3) 128, 256, 512MB, 1GB 128MB ~ 1GB

Total System Memory

128MB ~ 2GB
NOTE: No hardware or BIOS setup required after adding or removing memory modules.

Power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before installing or removing memory modules.

  1. Locate the DIMM slot on the board.
  2. Hold two edges of the DIMM module carefully, keep away of touching its connectors.
  3. Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot.
  4. Firmly press the module into the slots until the ejector tabs at both sides of the slot automatically snaps into the mounting notch. Do not force the DIMM module in with extra force as the DIMM module only fit in one direction.
  5. To remove the DIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the slot outward simultaneously, and then pull out the DIMM module.
     
ATTENTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or optional boards. Before starting these procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object briefly.
