ECC Memory And Shuttle Athlon Motherboards?

A not-so-nameless Anonymous Coward asks: "Anyone knows of a specific instance where an AMD Athlon motherboard worked with PC100 ECC Memory? I have heard some rumors that they don't like ECC memory. I built a server, and foolish me decided to do the right thing and get the good memory: 256 Megs corsair registered, ECC PC100 strip. However, they didn't work in the Shuttle AMD K7 Athlon motherboard. Now, before you ask me why shuttle AI61, I was in a hurry and it was the only thing in hand. The 256Meg used 256Mbit chips, so I thought perhaps the BIOS didn't support 256 Mbits chips, 128 Meg PC100 ECC generic brand didn't help. Cheapo PC100 works just fine! An e-mail to shuttle went unanswered and their distributor didn't help much either."
