Simm Memory Upgrade Path - NEC POWERMATE V Service Manual

1-10 Technical Information
SIMMs install directly in the four sockets on the system board. The four sockets are
assigned as SIMM 1 through SIMM 4. For non-multimedia configurations, the two
standard 4 MB SIMMs are installed in SIMM 1 and SIMM 2. For multimedia
configurations, the two standard 8 MB SIMMs are installed in SIMM 1 and SIMM 2.
SIMMs must be installed in pairs of the same memory type. Jumpers are not required to set
memory size or type as the system BIOS automatically detects the SIMMs. SIMM banks 1
and 2 must always be filled for the system to operate. Table 1-5 shows the SIMM memory
upgrade path.
