The Ambra model number (e.g., dp60pci) is determined
by the production
model number. This number,
which begins with either a BM or SU, is usually
located above or below the power supply on the
back of the machine, or
possibly on the bottom
of the machine.
Note: Some 8MB simms may not work in some systems because of the inherent
problem with dual-density simms (notably E/VL & I/VL machines)
Also note: ALL Pentium based systems require matched pairs of SIMMs
Quick Ref --
=============
P24T - Pentium Overdrive Processor for slower 486 based systems (Less than 100 Mhz)
LBA - Logical Block addressing - required for IDE or EIDE drives over 528 MB
(no LBA-use disk mgr software)
Setup - CMOS BIOS settings
User Defn - User Defined Hard Drive type - for two IDE drive, one may have to be a PREDEFINED type
Autotype - BIOS setup can read HDD settings (ex. put in Hard Drive type 255,
then Hit F8 to autodetect parameters)
D/T - Desktop
M/T - Minitower
