Optional Equipment

You can easily upgrade your computer by installing additional memory and a wide variety of options, as described below. (Installation instructions are provided in Chapters 2 and 3 of this manual.)

Memory

By adding 1MB, 4MB, 16MB, or 64MB SIMMs (single inline memory modules) to the main system board, you can expand the computer’s memory up to 128MB.

Drives

Your system can support up to three internal mass storage devices, including hard disk drives, diskette drives, a tape drive, or a CD-ROM drive. As your storage needs expand, you can install additional drives.

OverDrive Processor

If you have the 486SX/33 model, you can enhance your system by installing an Intel® OverDrive™ processor. This processor doubles the internal clock speed so your system runs much faster.

Alternate VGA Interface

If you want to install a high-resolution graphics adapter card for additional graphics capabilities (such as 1280 x 1024 resolutions), you can connect it to the computer’s alternate VGA interface. This allows you to use the special graphics features on the adapter card while accessing the standard VGA signals provided by your main system board.
