Installing DRAM SIMM
IMPORTANT:
The ASUS PCI-DA2200 requires a minimum of 8 Mbytes of DRAM
in one SIMM (with or without parity function) installed in SIMM
socket to operate. The controller is normally delivered without any DRAM
installed.
The following are guidelines with regards to DRAM:
•
Use 72-pin 60ns DRAM or 60ns EDO RAM SIMM modules. EDO
RAM is recommended to improve the performance.
•
DRAM with or without parity is auto-detected by ASUS PCI-
DA2200, but DRAM with parity is recommended for security.
•
Minimum DRAM required is 8 Mbytes installed in SIMM socket,
however 16Mbytes is recommended.
•
ASUS PCI-DA2200 supports 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 Mbyte DRAM
SIMM modules. Maximum DRAM size is 128 Mbytes.
To install DRAM SIMM
1. Power off the system and disconnect the power connector.
2. Insert the DRAM SIMM paralleled with the key to the left (1). Then,
push towards the back until the hooks on both sides of the socket
snap into place (2) as shown below.
