Upgrading the MGA Millennium Board Memory

If your PC has the MGA Millennium video board instead of integrated
video memory, you can increase its memory from 2 MB to 4 MB to get
more colors and better video resolution.

1

Switch off the display and computer, and disconnect the power
supply cables and any telecommunications cables. Remove the
computer’s cover.

2

Unscrew and remove the screw securing the MGA Millennium board.
Put the screw to one side. Note which slot the board is in.

3

Carefully remove the board from its slot, holding the board at each
end by its top edge. Do not bend the board. With its components
facing up, place the board on a clean, flat, solid, static-free surface.
Handle the board by its edges.

4

Install the memory module on the video board. Carefully slide the
board back into its slot. Firmly press the board into the socket. Make
sure that the board’s connector engages completely with the socket
and does not touch components on other boards you may have
installed. Secure the board by replacing the screw.
