Adding Memory Modules

Your computer comes with 4MB of memory soldered directly

onto the main system board. By installing 4MB SIMMs (single

inline memory modules), you can increase the memory in your

computer up to 16MB.

Caution

It is best to have your dealer install memory modules for

you because they can be damaged easily if installed

incorrectly. If you prefer, you can install them yourself by

carefully following the instructions in this section. However,

you could transmit an electrostatic discharge and damage

your components; so read this entire section before you

begin.

Before you install SIMMs, check the following guidelines to

ensure that they will work properly:

Use only 4MB fast page mode SIMMs that operate at an

access speed of 80ns (nanoseconds) or faster. Be sure all the

SIMMs operate at the same speed.

The Equity 386/33 PLUS can use any 4MB SIMM that

complies with industry standards; however, you should

use Epson SIMM option kits to ensure reliability and

compatibility.
