Notes on memory limitations
• Due to chipset limitation, this motherboard can only support up to
8 GB on the operating systems listed below. You may install a maximum of
2 GB DIMMs on each slot.
• Some old-version DDR2-667 DIMMs may not match Intel
®
’s
On-Die-Termination (ODT) requirement and will automatically downgrade
to run at DDR2-533. If this happens, contact your memory vendor to check
the ODT value.
• Due to chipset limitation, DDR2-667 with CL=4 will be downgraded to run
at DDR2-533 by default setting. If you want to operate with lower latency,
adjust the memory timing manually.
• Due to chipset limitation, DDR2-533 with CL=3 will be downgraded to run
at DDR2-400 by default setting. If you want to operate with lower latency,
adjust the memory timing manually.
Important notice on installing Windows
®
XP 32-bit version
If you install Windows
®
XP 32-bit version Operating System (OS), the limitation
of this OS version is that it may reserve a certain amount of memory space for
system devices. We recommend that you install less than 3 GB system memory
if you would like to work under Windows
®
XP 32-bit version OS. The excess
memory installation will not cause any usage problem, but it will not give users
the benet of manipulating this excess memory space.
