The motherboard can support theoretically 128MB of memory, however it does
have a limit, only the first 64MB of memory will be cached. Because of the
way windows works this is very important, and you end up about a 15-20%
speed loss due to it. However, since you are already over that limit you are
already used to the loss in performance! :) Best way to find out is to
contact the manufacturer, however my gut tells me, based on what you've got
in there and what chipset it is that the board supports 128MB. I do not
think it supports anything above that (a limit of the chipset). TTYL
