System memory configuration guidelines
• To ensure data integrity, use only Acer-approved DDR2 800
unbuffered ECC modules in 512 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB capacities.
• Use identical modules—same type, banking, stacking technology,
and manufacturer.
• The minimum memory configuration is one DIMM, installed in the
DIMM A1 slot (the slot closest to the processor socket).
• The system does not support a three-DIMM memory configuration.
