Checking System Memory; Setting The Video Display Type - Epson EL 3S/33 User Manual

Checking System Memory

Your computer comes with 2MB or 4MB of random access
memory (RAM) on SIMMs. DOS and application programs that
run under DOS use the first 640KB of memory. You can use the
memory above 1MB as extended memory.
When you boot your system, the system BIOS detects the type
of RAM and updates the base memory size and the extended
memory size automatically. You see the memory configuration
displayed on this SETUP screen.
