Hardware Upgrades Installing Additional Memory The computer comes with synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs). DIMMs The memory sockets on the Intel 845 chipset-based system board can be populated with industry-standard DIMMs. These memory module slots are populated with at least one preinstalled memory module. To achieve the maximum memory support, you may be required to replace the preinstalled DIMM with a higher capacity DIMM. For proper system operation, the DIMMs must be industry-standard 168-pin, unbuffered PC133-compliant SDRAM DIMMs, depending on the model. The SDRAM DIMMs must support CAS Latency 2 or 3 (CL = 2 or CL = 3). They must also contain the mandatory Joint Electronic Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) Serial Presence Detect (SPD) information. DIMMs constructed with x4 SDRAM are not supported; the system will not start using unsupported DIMMs. Ä CAUTION: Some models support ECC memory and some support non-ECC memory. For those systems that do support ECC, Compaq does not support mixing ECC and non-ECC memory. Doing so will cause the system to blink the NUMLOCK LED on the keyboard continuously and, if a speaker is installed in the system, there will be a short beep followed by 2 long beeps. In addition, the system will not boot the operating system. Hardware Reference Guide 2-7

Installing Additional Memory
The computer comes with synchronous dynamic random access
memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).
DIMMs
The memory sockets on the Intel 845 chipset-based system board can
be populated with industry-standard DIMMs. These memory module
slots are populated with at least one preinstalled memory module.
To achieve the maximum memory support, you may be required to
replace the preinstalled DIMM with a higher capacity DIMM.
For proper system operation, the DIMMs must be industry-standard
168-pin, unbuffered PC133-compliant SDRAM DIMMs, depending
on the model. The SDRAM DIMMs must support CAS Latency 2
or 3 (CL = 2 or CL = 3). They must also contain the mandatory Joint
Electronic Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) Serial Presence
Detect (SPD) information. DIMMs constructed with x4 SDRAM are
not supported; the system will not start using unsupported DIMMs.
Ä
CAUTION:
Some models support ECC memory and some support
non-ECC memory. For those systems that do support ECC, Compaq
does not support mixing ECC and non-ECC memory. Doing so will
cause the system to blink the NUMLOCK LED on the keyboard
continuously and, if a speaker is installed in the system, there will be a
short beep followed by 2 long beeps. In addition, the system will not
boot the operating system.
