You can install any size of memory module from 16 MB up to 256
MB, so the maximum memory size is 3 x 256 MB = 768 MB.
The edge connectors on the memory modules have cut outs, which
coincide with struts in the DIMM slots, so the memory modules
can only be installed in the correct way.
On the DIMM slot, pull the locking latches at either end of the
slots outwards. Position the memory module correctly and insert it
into the DIMM slot. Press the module down into the slot so that the
locking latches lever inwards and lock the module in place.
Set the Jumpers
Jumpers are sets of pins which can be connected together with
jumper caps. The jumper caps change the way the mainboard
operates by changing the electronic circuits on the mainboard. If a
jumper cap connects two pins, we say the pins are SHORT. If a
jumper cap is removed from two pins, the pins are OPEN.
