Processor Jumper Settings

~1

You need to change the processor jumper settings if you install a new processor chip. The settings for J10, J11, and J12 must correspond to the type of chip installed.

If the computer’s microprocessor is a FQFP type, it is surface- mounted on the main system board. To add an OverDrive processor, install it in the empty OverDrive socket and disable the original microprocessor by setting jumper J23 to position 2-3. Also make sure J10, J11, and J12 are set correctly.

Processor Speed Jumper Settings

You need to change the processor speed jumper settings if you replace a 25 MHz processor with a 33 MHz processor.

Processor Chips

If you have the 4SX/25 or 4DX/33 system, you can install an Intel OverDrive processor on the main system board to effectively double the internal clock speed of the computer’s microprocessor. Alternatively, for the 4SX/25, you can install the 487SX/25 microprocessor with built-in math coprocessor.

SIMM Installation

The computer comes with 4MB of memory installed in a SIMM socket. To increase the amount of memory in the computer up to 32MB, you can install 36-bit, fast-page mode SIMMs that operate at an access speed of 70ns or faster, with a capacity of 1MB, 4MB, or 16MB.

The following table shows the possible SIMM configurations; do not install memory in any other configuration. Make sure that both SIMMs operate at the same speed.
