SDR SDRAM will not work on a board that has only DDR slots. I tried to make 
the same "shortcut" when buying my EPoX EP-8KHA+ DDR mainboard. I don't know 
about the board that you are looking at, but my new board works perfect in 
FreeBSD except for a CD-ROM problem (which just needs to be MFC'd at this 
point) and no support for the onboard audio. Both of these may apply to your 
board, which is one of the others I was looking at.
