SIMM Installation
Your computer comes with 2MB, 4MB, or 8MB of memory on
memory mod&s-also called SIMMs (single inline memory
modules). By installing additional SIMMs, you can increase
the amount of memory in your computer up to 16MB.
There are four SIMM sockets on the main system board, and
each can contain one SIMM. You can use 1MB and 4MB
SIMMs.
The following table shows the possible SIMM configurations;
do not install memory in any other configuration. The label
on the system board for each SIMM socket (RAM1 through
RAM4) identifies the bank of sockets where you should install
SIMMS.
