|
|
Hi,
I would like to ask what happens if I put ECC memory module into a non-ECC supporting motherboard. Will it work?
I have VIA KT133 and RAM I would like to buy is 1 GB ECC CL3 133 Mhz. Will it work together?
Thanks
Martin |

Only some motherboards support ECC, and also, how many sticks do you have?
Some boards do not support 512MB sticks, you need a max density of 256MB/stick.
On the other hand, I have an Apollo133 board which supports both ECC/non-ECC RAM at a capacity of 1GB with only 2 slots  |

I have three available slots. My exact board is: KOB KT133a FSX with updated bios to version 1.2f ....
I am not sure how many MB support my board per stick.
I would like to know if I can put inside ECC memory. Will it work like parit memory or will it not boot?
The auction is ending soooon I hope you can help me |
