Optional Devices

If you install a memory module that is not compatible with the computer,

a beep will sound when you turn on the power. If the incompatible module is

installed in slot A, there will be a long beep (1 second) followed by one

short beep (0.5 seconds), while if the incompatible module is in slot B, there

will be a long beep followed by two short beeps. In the event both modules

are incompatible, there will be a long beep followed by one short beep,

a pause, and then a long beep followed by two short beeps. In all instances

you should shut down the computer and remove the incompatible

module(s).
