Installing Memory Modules

Your computer comes with 4MB of memory on memory modules-also called SIMMs (single inline memory modules). By installing additional SIMMs, you can increase the amount of memory in your computer up to 16MB.

There are four SIMM sockets on the main system board, and each can contain one SIMM. You can use 1MB and 4MB SIMMs.

The following table shows the possible SIMM configurations; do not install memory in any other configuration. The label on the system board for each SIMM socket (RAM1 through RAM4) identifies the bank of sockets where you should install SIMMs.

SIMM configurations

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

Use only tin-plated, 30-pin, 8-bit or 9-bit, 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.

Use the correct SIMM configuration to add the amount of memory you want. See the table above.

Your SIMM sockets may not look exactly like the ones in the illustrations. If you’re not sure how to install SIMMs, contact the EPSON Connection or ask for assistance.
