Increasing the Video Memory

Your computer comes with at least 512KB of video memory.

You can increase the video memory to 1MB by installing four

256K x 4-bit DRAM, 20-pin, ZIP (Zig-zag Inline Package) chips.

This is useful for running graphics-intensive applications or for

supporting resolutions up to 1024 x 768 or more on your

monitor.

The following table lists the video DRAM ZIP chips that you

can install on the main system board.
