1-12 Reviewing System Features
Memory Sockets
The system unit comes with at least one 64-MB small outline dual-inline
memory module (SO-DIMM) mounted in one of two memory sockets.
You can increase total system memory to a maximum of 256 MB by
using two 128-MB modules (see “Adding Memory Modules” in
Chapter 5).
The modules use synchronous dynamic random access memory
(SDRAM). Memory allocation is controlled by Dynamic Video Memory
Technology (DVMT). With DVMT, total system memory is shared
between system memory and video memory. For example, with 64 MB of
total system memory, 56 MB might be allocated for system memory and
8 MB for video memory, with actual memory use dependent on video
usage.
Password Clear Jumper
Use the password clear jumper (7F4) to clear your password if you forgot
it. To clear and reset the password, see “Jumper Settings” and “Security
Menu” in Chapter 3.
