Thanks ron.
I has another problem with reading SPD. I'm using ASUS P4B533-V motherboard. I couldn't get the VID and DID of 82801DB. And of course, I could not read the SPDt.
How can I fix it?

I'm trying to use "scanspd" to read SPD. It works fine for some motherboards. But it read back 0s for other motherboards.
some motherboards have two I2C bussees, one for SPD and one for sensors. The BIOS uses the I2C bus for SPD, then sets a register so that the I2C can only be used for sensors.
The ASUS CUA works this way. The result is that you have to find the hardware that sets the register and change it for SPD.
