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

E-5250 System

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

.

 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.
