Video Memory

Page 162 highlights

Video Memory Notes Depending on the server model, the server system board comes with either 512 KB or 1 MB of preinstalled video memory. If the server has a 1 MB memory buffer, the server controller will support high-resolution graphics and text modes with 132 columns. If the server has 512 KB of preinstalled video memory, you can increase the memory buffer size to 1 MB by installing a 40-pin, 256 KB, 16-bit, 70 ns, complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) module with Fast Page Mode, such as Samsung KM416C256AJ-7, Hitachi HM514260AJ7R, or equivalent. To install video memory: 1. Remove both processor boards to allow you to access the DRAM on the system board. (See "Processor or Memory Board" on page 121.) 2. Install the DRAM in the socket: a. Locate the dot 2 on the DRAM. b. Carefully align the dot on the DRAM with the beveled corner of the video-memory socket 1 on the system board. (There is also a dot 2 on the system board at the beveled corner of the socket to help you align the DRAM correctly.) c. Press the DRAM down firmly into the socket. 154 Netfinity Server HMM

Video Memory
Notes
Depending on the server model, the server
system board comes with either 512 KB or 1 MB
of preinstalled video memory.
If the server has a 1 MB memory buffer, the
server controller will support high-resolution
graphics and text modes with 132 columns.
If the server has 512 KB of preinstalled video
memory, you can increase the memory buffer
size to 1 MB by installing a 40-pin, 256 KB,
16-bit, 70 ns, complementary metal oxide
semiconductor (CMOS) dynamic random-access
memory (DRAM) module with Fast Page Mode,
such as Samsung KM416C256AJ-7, Hitachi
HM514260AJ7R, or equivalent.
To install video memory:
1.
Remove both processor boards to allow you to
access the DRAM on the system board.
(See
“Processor or Memory Board” on page
121.)
2.
Install the DRAM in the socket:
a.
Locate the dot
2
on the DRAM.
b.
Carefully align the dot on the DRAM with the
beveled corner of the video-memory socket
1
on the system board.
(There is also a dot
2
on the system board at the beveled corner of the
socket to help you align the DRAM correctly.)
c.
Press the DRAM down firmly into the socket.
