Well according to Crucial the meory support is:

Up to 2 x 256MB PC133 unbuffered non-ecc

256MB sticks MUST be "double sided" which means they use two chip select
lines per module.  This normally means the module has 16 chips on it.
If it has only 8 chips, it will almost certainly not work.

128MB modules can have just 8 chips and be fine.

That is the limitation of the intel 810 chipset.

My Athlon 700 (Via KT133 chipset) has a similar limit, except it can use
single sided 256MB sticks, but must have double sided 512MB sticks and
maxes out at 3 x 512MB ram.
