Installing Video Memory

The VENTURIS Pentium computer comes standard with 1 MB of video memory. This amount can be
increased to 2 MB by installing two, MB video memory DRAM chips in the designated sockets on the
main logic board. (The Video Memory upgrade is not possible on the Venturis 575 E models.)
To install the video memory upgrade chip:
1) Turn off the computer.
2) Disconnect external devices, ac power and monitor power.
3) Unlock and remove cover.
4) Remove upgrade chips from packaging and install in socket.
5) Make sure pin 1 on chip is aligned with pin 1 on socket (A, Figure 3 - 23).
6) Replace and lock cover. Refer to "Replacing and Locking the Cover".
7) Connect external devices and restore power.
8) Run the BIOS Setup utility by rebooting and pressing [F2] before POST completes.
9) Select Save Changes and Exit.
The computer reboots and now recognizes the amount of new video memory.
