I have an older AMD 1800 CPU and K7S5A pro motherboard. I have 2 memory sticks in it now. 1 is 128 and 256 PC2100. This board has 4 slots for memory. 2 for DDR and 2 for SDRAM. I am using the 2 DDR slots.
I am trying to get 2 PC2100 512 sticks to work in it. Won't even boot up. I learned from Crucial that PC3200 will work even though the Motherboard Manual makes no mention.
I tried 2 of the PC3200 512s and no go. Why do the 2 sticks of PC2100 512s and the 2 PC3200 512s not work?
Does SDR/DDR CAS Latency settings in bios contro this? OR CPU frequency? I am thinking I need to change a bios setting or two. I tried clearing bios, no go...
Any help is appreciated.
The manual is on the bottom of this page.
