Before you install SIMMs, check the following guidelines to ensure that they will work properly:

qUse only 36-bit, 72-pin, fast-page mode SIMMs that operate at an access speed of 70ns (nanoseconds) or faster. Be sure all the SIMMs operate at the same speed.

qYour computer can use any SIMM that complies with industry standards; however, it is best to use Epson SIMM option kits to ensure reliability and compatibility.
