From a review of this board by one who purchased it:
'First - this mobo. is supposed to be usuable with PC133 or DDR
memory. There are 2 sockets for each. Nope. PC133 will only work with
the BUS SPEED jumper set to 100 Mhz. (for Duron CPUs). Set to 133Mhz
(for Athlon CPUs) the computer crashes/locks up a moment or 2 after
boot-up. To run Athlons at full speed, you must use DDR memory. '
From the manufacturer's website, the user's manual for this board:
'For the above settings, you can only use one kind of memory on this
motherboard. It is forbidden to insert both kind of memory
simultaneously. You must insert only DDR or SDRAM'.
From me:
It would be highly unusual for a motherboard to be able to use both
DDS and SDRAM at the same time. I would suggest pulling out the SDRAM
and make do with the 256MB of DDR.
Also, visit the manufacture's web site and download and print the
manual and other docs for this MB.
