• When using only one memory module, start installing the DDR2 DIMM from slot DIMM_A1 or DIMM_B1 for better overclocking capability. • For dual-channel configuration (2), you may: - install identical DIMMs in all four sockets OR - install identical DIMM pair in DIMM_A1 and DIMM_B1 (yellow sockets) and another identical DIMM pair in DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2 (black sockets) • Always use identical DDR2 DIMM pairs for dual channel mode. For optimum compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor. Important notice on installing Windows® Vista / XP 32-bit version • If you are using a Windows 32-bit version operating system (e.g. 32-bit Windows XP, 32-bit Vista) without the Physical Address Extension (PAE) support, the system will allocate a certain amount of memory space for system devices. • We recommend that you install only a maximum of 3GB system memory when using a Windows 32-bit version operating system without the PAE. The excess over 3GB of installed memory will not cause any problem; however, the system can not use this excess memory space and the system will display less than the total size of physical memory installed The motherboard can support 8 GB physical memory on the operating system listed below. You may install a maximum of 2 GB DIMMs on each slot. 64-bit Windows® XP Professional x64 Edition Windows® Vista x64 Edition 1-14 E3608_M2N-VM-DVI.indb 9 Chapter 1: Product introduction 12/27/07 4:38:22 PM
