DDR Module Combination
To enable normal operation, at least one DIMM module should be in-
stalled on the motherboard. As Intel
®
82845 chipset supports 4 DDR memory
banks at its maximum, the system memory installed can be up to 2GB.
All three slots can be single-sidedly or double-sidedly installed with 184-
pin DDR DIMM modules. Please especially note that DDR 1 alone occupies
two memory banks; the rest two banks are shared by DDR 2 & DDR 3. You may
install memory modules in the following combination:
S (Single Side): 64MB ~ 512MB D (Double Side): 128MB ~ 1GB
