These SIMMS must be added in pairs. The 16-MB base systems use 4 SIMM slots." ".. both have a 64-bit memory bus that requires two 32-bit SIMMs to be addressed at the same time" Bruce Cogan Bruce.Cogan@anu.edu.au Mt Stromlo Observatory Tel. +61 6 249 0232 Australian National University Fax +61 6 249 0233 Private Bag Weston Creek P.O. , ACT 2611, Australia
