1.7 System memory 1.7.1 Overview The motherboard comes with two 240-pin Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) and two 184-pin DDR Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets. DDR2 DIMMS are notched differently to prevent misplacement in DDR DIMM sockets. The following figure illustrates the location of the sockets: Color Blue Yellow Sockets DDR_1 and DDR_2 DDR2_1 and DDR2_2 Top:Line In Center:Line Out Below:Mic In P5VDC-X R DDR2_B1 DDR2_A1 DDR_B1 DDR_A1 P5VDC-X DDR & DDR2 DIMM Sockets • To prevent damage to the motherboard, do not use DDR and DDR2 memory simultaneously. • Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than 2 GB system memory when you installed two 1 GB DDR2 or DDR memory modules. 1.7.2 Memory Configurations You may install 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR/DDR2 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section.
