INSTALLING A VIDEO MEMORY UPGRADE

Your PC is supplied with 1 MB of video memory on the system board. If you want better
performance, higher resolutions or more colors, you can install a pair of video memory
modules to increase your available video memory to 2 MB. Detailed information about
available video resolutions is given in chapter 5, Technical Information.
CAUTION:
Installing Video Memory Modules
To install a pair of video memory modules on the system board, follow this procedure:
1 Disconnect the power supply cord and any connection to a telecommunications network.
2 Remove the computer's cover and power supply.
3 Align the video memory module directly over the socket taking care to align the dot on the
module with the corner notch on the socket as illustrated in the diagram. Firmly press the
memory module completely into the connector. Video memory modules must be installed
in pairs.
4 Install any other accessories before replacing the cover and power supply. Reconnect all
cables and power cords.
Static electricity can damage electronic
components. Turn all equipment OFF. Don't let
your clothes touch the accessory. To equalize
the static electricity, rest the accessory bag on
top of the power supply while you are removing
the accessory from the bag. Handle the
accessory as little as possible and with care.
