G586OPC
ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and
attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis. If a
wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain
contact with the system chassis throughout any
procedures requiring ESD protection.
Hardware InstallationMemory Installation
The G586OPC system board can support 2MB to
128MB of memory using 72-pin SIMMs (Single In-Line
Memory Module).
The SIMM sockets are divided into two banks on the
system board. The G586OPC system board uses
256Kx36, 512Kx36, 1Mx36, 2Mx36, 4Mx36 and
8Mx36 SIMMs. Non-parity (x32) SIMMs can also be
used if parity checking is turned off in CMOS setup.
You will need 2 or 4 pieces of SIMMs, depending on
the amount of memory you intend to install.
To install the SIM modules, first populate Bank 0 and
then Bank 1, or the system will not work.
The table on the next page summarizes the bank loca-
tions and modules needed for the corresponding memory
sizes. Each bank consists of 2 SIMM sockets.
