Memory
DIMM Module Combination
Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Each DIMM slot supports up to a
maximum size of 1GB. Users can install either single- or double-sided modules to
meet their own needs. Users may install memory modules of different type and
density on different-channel DDR DIMMs. However, memory modules of the same
type and density are required while using dual-channel DDR, or instability may
happen.
The mainboard provides 4 slots for 184-pin DDR DIMM (Double In-Line Memory
Module) modules and supports the memory size up to 4GB. You can install DDR 333/
400 modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DIMM 1~4).

MSI Reminds You...
- The system operates dual channel ONLY when the DDR modules
are installed in accordance with the above-mentioned memory
population rules.
- In dual-channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules
of the same type and density on DDR DIMMs.
- To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory
modules into the Channel A slots (DIMM 1 or DIM M3) first.
