Math Coprocessor Option
The 80387SX Math Coprocessor (TI Part No. 2566997000 1) option for your TravelMate
3000 WinSX speeds up processing and improves throughput of calculations with
application programs that support a math coprocessor.
You can install the 80387SX Math Coprocessor option yourself, but installation requires
partial disassembly of the computer. If you do not feel comfortable installing the
coprocessor, have your dealer or qualified TI Service personnel install the coprocessor
option.
Caution: Prevent possible component damage caused by electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Use a high-impedance grounded-conductive floor mat or wrist strap
to prevent ESD. Before touching the integrated circuit devices, discharge static
electricity from your hands, tools, and containers by touching them to a grounded
surface.
