- I have different speed SIMM on my motherboard and runs OS/2 without a
- problem. One set is 70ns, 9 chips Toshiba SIMMs and the other is 60ns, 3
- chip Motorola SIMMs.
-
- Make sure that your motherboard can handle different types of SIMM and that
- the SIMM work. From reports on the net, the only time people have memory
- problem is when the SIMMs are somewhat flakey to being with.
