You can upgrade video memory from 4 to 8 MB by installing a video-memory
upgrade module in the video-memory upgrade socket on the system board.
Adding additional video memory increases the system’s video performance
and provides additional modes for high-resolution/expanded color applications.
To install the video memory upgrade, follow these steps:
1.
Remove the expansion-card cage.

2. Orient the video-memory upgrade module as shown in Figure 7-15. Then
carefully align the module’s edge connector pins with the socket ensuring
that the slot in the module mates with the socket key.
3. Press the video-memory upgrade module firmly into the socket, and pivot
the module downward until the module clicks into place.
NOTE: If you do not hear a sharp click when installing the video-memory
upgrade module, remove the module and repeat steps 2 and 3.
4. Replace the expansion-card cage.
5. Replace the computer cover and reconnect the AC power cable to the elec-
trical outlet. Press the power button on the computer to reboot the
system.
NOTE: As the system boots, it automatically detects the presence of the
new video-memory upgrade module and automatically changes the sys-
tem configuration information in the System Setup program.
