Using the built-in interfaces, you can connect most of your

peripheral devices directly to the computer so you don’t have

to install option cards. You can use the option slots to enhance

your system with extra functions such as a modem card or

additional interface ports.

The VGA controller supports standard resolutions up to

640 x 480 in 16 colors and extended resolutions up to 1024 x 768

in 16 colors (interlaced and non-interlaced), and lower

resolutions in up to 256 colors. With 1MB of video memory

installed, the VGA controller supports resolutions up to

1024 x 768 in 256 colors and 640

x

480 in 16.8 million colors

(for some applications).

VGA Utilities

utilities for use with the integrated VGA interface. With these

utilities, you can take advantage of extended VGA features

such as high resolutions and 132-column text mode when you

run popular application programs. See the

VGA Utilities Guide

for installation instructions.

Optional Equipment

You can easily upgrade your computer by installing additional

memory and a wide variety of options, as described below.

(Installation instructions are provided in Chapters 2 and 3 of

this manual.)

Memory

modules) to the main system board, you can expand the

computer’s memory up to 32MB.
