Adding or replacing memory
The Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) Dual Inline
Memory Modules (DIMMs) supported by your system board conform to the
following standards:
Non-ECC (64-bit) memory
Unbuffered
PC133
Single- or double-sided configurations
512 MB maximum system memory
The system board contains two DIMM sockets. You can fill the sockets with
32-MB, 64-MB, 128-MB, or 256-MB DIMMs in any combination to expand
the system memory up to 512 MB.
No jumper settings are required for the memory size or type because the BIOS
automatically detects this information.
To install or replace DIMMs:
1 Turn off the computer, disconnect the power cord, and disconnect the
modem cord, if your computer has a modem.
2 Open the case by following the instructions on page 19, observing the
static electricity precautions on page 17.
3 Remove the upper drive cage so that you can access the DIMM sockets.
(See page 26 for instructions on removing the drive cage.)
