Installing Memory Modules

There are 12 SIMM sockets on the memory card organized in three banks consisting of four sockets each. Each socket can contain one memory module. You must fill all of the sockets in any bank you use. Since each bank has four sockets, you must install four SIMMs to fill up the bank.

The following table shows all the possible SIMM configurations for your computer. Do not install SIMMs in any other configuration. Remember that the memory card already contains 4MB (soldered).
