Gently press the chip halfway into the socket (to make sure it

is correctly aligned). If the chip goes in at an angle, remove

it with a chip puller or a small flat-head screwdriver and try

again.

When the chip is properly positioned, push down firmly on

both ends of the chip to make sure it is well-seated.

Repeat steps 4 through 6 for each of the three remaining chips.

Replace any option cards you removed. See page 2-16 for

instructions.

You may want to run the VGA utility CLMODE to see

your increased video memory. For instructions, see the

VGA Utilities Guide.

Using the Alternate VGA interface

Your computer includes an alternate VGA interface (feature

connector) on the main system board. This connector allows

you to install a high-resolution graphics adapter card in one of

the computer’s option slots and still access the standard VGA

signals provided by your system circuitry.

Typically, high-resolution graphics adapter cards increase the

graphics processing performance of your VGA monitor and

provide resolutions of more than 1024 x 768. They are useful for

high-end graphics applications such as AutoCAD

or Windows.

To connect the graphics adapter card interface to the alternate

VGA interface on your main system board, you must have a

VGA feature cable.
