Changing Virtual Memory Settings
If you have more than one hard disk drive, you may need to change size and location of your
virtual memory page file. See operating system Help for more information.
Consider the following before changing page file settings:
♦
The size of the page file. If your system is equipped with a large amount of RAM, Setup
might create a page file that is unnecessarily large.
♦
Drive letter reassignments. If you reassigned your drive letters, you may find it necessary to
adjust your page file settings.
To change the size and location of the virtual memory page file:
1. Go to System in the operating system’s Control Panel.
2. Under Performance, click Change.
3. Click a drive letter in the list, and then type new values in the Initial Size and Maximum Size
text boxes.
4. Click Set.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for any additional drives in the list.
6. Click Close, and then click OK.
7. When prompted, click Yes to restart the system with the new settings, or click No to continue
with other tasks and use the new settings the next time you restart the system.
Configuring the SCSI Controller
The system has a dual-channel SCSI controller integrated on the system board. Depending on your
system’s hardware configuration, this low-voltage differential (LVD) controller manages internal
and external Ultra, Ultra2, and Ultra3 SCSI peripheral devices. You may need to use the SCSI
Configuration Utility to configure the operation of SCSI peripherals connected to the controller.
You may need to change SCSI controller parameters for a single SCSI peripheral device:
♦
If you are advised to do so by technical support or by the vendor documentation.
♦
If the SCSI device does not negotiate properly with the controller.
♦
If you exceed the maximum cable length for connecting SCSI devices to the system. See
Chapter 8, “Upgrading the System,” for more information.
♦
If you connect non-Ultra SCSI peripheral devices to the system.
