2.5 - Installing the Memory Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the
motherboard and processor. Only DDRII-800/667 DIMM modules are required.
Check the TYAN Web site at: www.tyan.com for details of the type of memory
recommended for your motherboard.
The following diagram shows common types of DDRII memory modules.
Key points to note before installing memory:
For optimal dual-channel DDRII operation, always inst all memory in pairs
beginning with DIMM1 and DIMM3. Memory modules of the same type and
density are required for dual-channel DDRII operation. Mismatched memory
may cause system instability.
• Only DDRII 800/667 un-buffered, non-ECC memory modules are
supported.
• All installed memory will automatically be detected and no jumpers or
settings need changing.
Refer to the following table for supported DDRII populations.
