2. System Memory (DRAM)

This motherboard supports four 72-pin SIMMs of 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, or
32MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB. For BUS frequen-
cies of 50MHz or 60MHz, you can use either 60ns or 70ns modules. For
BUS frequencies of 66MHz, you must use 60ns modules.

IMPORTANT: Each bank must have the same size memory installed
in pairs.
IMPORTANT: Do not use memory modules with more than 24 chips
per module. Modules with more than 24 chips exceed the design speci-
fications of the memory subsystem and will cause unreliable opera-
tion.
IMPORTANT: Do not use SIMM Modules that use an extra TTL
chip to convert the memory module from asymmetric to symmetric.

Install memory in any or all of the banks in any combination as follows:
