Important!

See the Maintaining and Troubleshooting Your E- 5250 System guide for a complete description of the type of DIMMs you can install in your computer.

Expansion Slots

Expansion slots inside the computer enable you to install add-in cards, such as a SCSI (small computer system interface) controller. Your computer includes one AGP slot, six 32-bit peripheral component interconnect (PCI) slots, and one 8/16-bit industry standard architecture (ISA) slot.

The maximum number of slots that you can fill is seven. The ISA slot and PCI slot next to each other share a slot location. You can use one or the other slot, but not both. For instructions on installing add-in cards, see the “Installing Components” chapter in the Maintaining and Troubleshooting Your E-5250 System guide.

Intel 440GX Chip Set

The Intel® 440GX chip set provides support for Pentium® II Xeon™ processors. The chip set’s Quad Port Acceleration improves bandwidth between the processor, the AGP, 100-Mhz SDRAM, and the PCI bus.

Manageability

The status of your system’s hardware is monitored through the hardware management application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) on the system board. Monitored information includes voltage and chassis intrusion.

You can access the monitoring information through Intel LANDesk Client Manager, which provides a quick system health indicator.

Memory

Your computer comes standard with error correcting code (ECC) synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM). You can install up to 2 GB of memory in the four memory slots on the system board. You can fill the slots with DIMMs of the sizes 128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB (when available).

No jumper settings are required for the memory size or type because this information is automatically detected by the BIOS. For information on installing additional memory, see the “Installing Components” chapter in the Maintaining and Troubleshooting Your E-5250 System guide.
