That is not good,  maybe I am going back too far,  the motherboard 
manuals I have had,  contained a table showing the various combinations 
of RAM boards that can go in, and what the total ram would equate to.

But it is a good start,  maybe it a starting point to contact the 
makers,  say you have looked at the manual and that doesn't appear to 
give the required information,
