SIMM Installation

The computer comes with 16MB of RAM standard on two

8MB SIMMs. You can increase the memory up to 128MB

using 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, or 32MB SIMMs. The SIMMs must be

tin-plated, 72-pin, single- or double-sided, fast-page mode or

EDO mode, parity or no-parity type with an access speed of

70ns or faster. Be sure all the SIMMs operate at the same

speed.

The table below lists all the possible SIMM configurations; do

not install SIMMs in any other configuration.
