When you say it doesn't work, how exactly? - - can't boot from the DVD burner - not recognised by the OS - can't burn media Which BIOS is installed on the card - the RAID one or the BASE one.

That's not how I remember these 3 slot boards working (based on my Chaintech 7NJS Zenith) Max single channel memory is 3GB, so 3 x 1GB Max dual channel memory is 2GB because that needs each channel to have the same total capacity, so either 2 x 512MB in slots 1 & 2 = channel A + 1 x 1GB in slot 3 = …
