Hi all,

I'm wondering if I could make my motherboard support larger capacity of SD-RAM?

the maximum support for my motherboard is 512MB, can I do some kinda trick to make it support larger space?

If anything maybe an updated to the BIOS might. You would have to check to see if there is an update for your MB that will accomplish that. It's a shot in the dark but probably your best bet.

Actually Intel 815 refers to the chipset, themohd. The Intel 815 motherboards that I looked at, from various manufacturers, had a socket 370 Pentium III processor and supported 512MB of RAM. Back in the day, that was plenty of RAM! Can you eyeball the motherboard and verify the manufacturer?
