no, as in they are designed for one particular job and only does that particular job. No configuring. They can handle a few different configuration of memory, but again, what exist in them already.

There were a few CPUs with on board memory controller, Athlon was the most memorable one because that addition is what kicked Intel into high gear.

THERE ARE NO DATA SHEETS!!!!

I have to figure this out all by hand, testing this, testing that. These are credit card terminals, so the data sheets are protected like nuclear launch codes. If I had a data sheet, I would have been done months ago.

can you help me remember how to smile?
make it somehow all seem worthwhile
how on earth did i get so jaded?
life's mysteries seem so faded
i can go where noone else can go
i know what no one else knows

read it? Can't find it!

There are 16 (I don't know, I made that number up) on these boards. Figuring out which does what is nearly impossible. I've googled "identify memory controller" and read 100 sites, looked at 1000 pictures and I end up mad.
