[DRAM and ECC]
If all your DRAM modules have parity chips (e.g. 8 chips + 4 parity chips), they are
considered 36bits. This motherboard sums the memory per bank and therefore two
modules will give 72bits and the following will be displayed:
If your DRAM modules do not have parity chips (e.g. 8 chips), they are considered
32bits and the following will be displayed instead:
The default of Disabled for Memory parity SERR# (NMI) will not show memory
errors on your monitor. When using parity DRAM modules, you can select from the
default of Parity or ECC (Error Checking and Correcting) to correct 1 bit memory

DRAM memory modules.)

switch drive letter assignments through the onboard chipset, set this field to Swap AB.
