SIMM
The SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets are divided into two
banks on the system board, Bank 0 and Bank 1. Each bank consists of
2 SIMM sockets.
You will need either 2 or 4 pieces of SIM modules, depending on the
amount of memory you intend to install. The system board will not work
if you install 1 or 3 pieces. Make sure you insert the same type of
SIMMs in one bank. You can install SIMMs in either of the banks, Bank
0 or Bank 1, but you must populate one bank first before going to the
next bank.
The 586IVX system board can support 8MB to 128MB of memory using
1MBx32, 2MBx32, 4MBx32, or 8MBx32 72-pin SIMMs. The table on the
next page shows the supported SIM modules and their corresponding
memory sizes.
