GF7100P-M7S Ver. 6.x Questions

Ive tried contacting Biostar support and its slow to be honest, or nonexistent. This motherboard is vague on how much ram it can hold when upgraded to Windows XP 64bit I was planning to do.

Right now I have winxp 32bit installed but want to add more memory as I only have 2gb of ram at this time.

Will this mobo A: Allow me to upgrade to Winxp 64bit?

and B: Allow me to upgrade to 4gb+ of ram?

Yes you can run winxp64 on this board, and it supports a max of 4 GB of memory.

Thank you Abek! Does anyone have an idea of how many pins on a memory stick this board uses? Nothing in their specifications does it list this and I still have heard nothing from their support.

The board supports 240 pin DDR2 memory.

thank you again Abekl! How did you find that out btw? I even tried a google search an got nothing on it.

I googled GF7100P-M7S which led me to this page:
http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=312. From there the rest was just reading. As for the number of memory pins, the spec says the board supports DDR2 memory, and all DDR2 memory is 240 pin.
