Installing a Math Coprocessor

Your computer has a socket on the main system board to accommodate an 80287 (8 or 10 MHz) math coprocessor. A math coprocessor speeds up the numeric calculations your computer performs when using certain application software. It also increases the speed at which graphic images are displayed on your monitor when you use graphics-oriented software.

It is best to have your dealer install a math coprocessor for you, since it is a delicate component that can be damaged easily if it is installed incorrectly.

If you install it yourself, be sure to read the manual that came with your math coprocessor, if you received one. Then follow the steps in this section to install it in your computer. Before you begin, be sure to read all of the warnings and instructions carefully so you do not injure yourself or damage the coprocessor or your computer.

Caution

To avoid generating static electricity and damaging your math coprocessor, remain stationary when you install it.
