Note for Memory Configuration
On TX chipset motherboards, there is a memory limitation when the system has
more than 2 DIMM sockets.
The limitations are :
1. Maximum memory size is 256MB total for all RAM socket.
2. DIMM 1 won’t support 64MB or 128MB DIMMs with 64Mbit SDRAM
cells.
3. If DIMM 2 and/or DIMM3 has 64MB or 128MB DIMM’ s with 64Mbit
SDRAM cells, DIMM 1 must be empty.
Follow the memory combination table below for instruction :

You can recognize 64MB or 128MB DIMMs with 64MB SDRAM cells in the
following way :
n When a 64MBDIMM only has 8 memory ICs, it’s composed of 64Mb cells.
(It may have additional glue logic ICs however.)
n A 128MB DIMM is always composed of 64Mb cells.
