Registered ECC ram on Shuttle AK31?

[flood]

Does the Shuttle AK31 take registered ECC ram?
No mention of it in the manual :-/

<< Also, the AK31 is one of the first AMD DDR boards available that has 4 DIMM slots, for a maximum of 4GB installed DDR-SDRAM. In order to use all 4 DIMM slots at once, registered DDR must be used, >>

kt266a roundup i actually found it on google.



<< . Remember that the board will support up to four DIMMs and they don't have to be registered either; a big kudos to the Shuttle engineering team that was able to pull this one off. >>

hmm, seems like registered will work in there, but its not required.

i have put 4 non registered non ECC 256mb PC2100 crucial sticks in a AK31 Rev. 3.1 and it booted up using 1gb and worked perfectly. the person i sold it too hasnt told me of any problems so far, and was a few months back.
