3.3.2 System Memory

The system memory consists of SDRAM memory on 64-bit bus and the module size options are 64/128/256MB upward. The BIOS will automatically detect the amount of memory in the system and configure CMOS accordingly during the POST (Power-On Self Test) process.

This must be done in a way that requires no user interaction.
