Your computer automatically enables memory caching for the 640KB of base memory. For the memory above 1MB, the Setup program allows you to turn extended memory caching on or off. The default setting is on for all the extended memory currently installed in your system from 1MB up to the maximum. Most of the time, you should cache all of your extended memory to maximize the performance of your 32-bit computer. However, if you install an optional memory card that "shares" memory with any of your other system memory, you should turn caching off in memory areas that are shared. See the manual that came with your memory card to see if this is necessary. To check or change the extended memory cache setting, follow these steps: 1. At the main Setup menu, highlight Cache memory. You see the following cache memory table: Extended memory caching 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15MB+ The table indicates the range of extended memory currently installed in your system. You see ON or OFF in the first three areas because your computer comes with 4MB of memory and the extended memory area from 1MB to 4MB can be cached. If you installed additional memory, you see ON or OFF for each additional megabyte of memory you have installed. The shaded areas indicate ranges of memory that are not installed. If your extended memory cache setting is correct, you can skip the rest of this section. 2 - 1 2 Running the Setup Program
