Abstract
A computer system with programmable serial presence detection (SPD) data is disclosed. The computer system uses a user-programmable memory to store virtual SPD data which includes the configuration information of the memory module. The virtual SPD data is stored separately from the system boot code of the computer system. A computing unit uses a memory driver to drive the memory module. The memory driver accesses the user-programmable memory through a virtual SPD module to acquire the configuration information of the memory module.
