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.
