CHAPTER 2 MEMORY
CONFIGURATION
2.1 SYSTEM
MEMORY
The Mainboard lets user upgrade system memory via SIMM sockets on the
mainboard. On-board memory
is
located in three banks: Bank
0,
Bank 1
and Bank
2.
Two SIMM sockets are provided in each bank. User can install either 1M,
4M,8M
, 16M, 32M, 64M or 128M SIMM in each bank .
Note: The type
of
SIMMllSIMM2 must be same.
The type
of
SIMM31SIMM4 must be same.
The type
of
SIMM51SIMM6 must be same.
Table 1 provides some typical DRAM configurations supported
by
the
mainboard.

3.2 CONNECTION THE MOTHERBOARD
Once the mainboard have been tastened into the system case, the next step
is to connect the internal cables. The internal cables are wire leads with
plastic female connectors that attach
to
the connectors. The mainboard
connectors have varying numbers
of
pins and are the points
of
contact
between the mainboard and other parts
of
the computer.
A description
of
each connector and its connector pins follows. See Fig . 3
for the location
of
the connectors on the mainboard.
Note: Before making connectors
on
the
board, make sure that power
to
the system is turned off.
