    Ecc Ram

    If I see this in the spec:

    DIMM Type : 64/128/256/512MB ECC SDRAM (PC100/PC133) with Maximum 1.5GB support

    Does it mean it ONLY accepts ECC RAM, or do you think it will take every day PC133 stuff as well?

    Chances are that it will still work fine without ECC RAM. This has been my finding with all the duel boards I have ever worked with.

    hmm, i just tested out my dual board with non-parity ram, and it worked fine... but maybe others are different, best way is probably to test anyway

    What's the motherboard? What's the chipset? It sounds like either a VIA chipset or another non-Intel one...
