3830 SL (250-3573) Math Co-Processor Faxback Doc. # 1217 Some programs, such as some spreadsheet programs, take considerable time to run. You can install a 25 MHz 80387SX or 80387SL math coprocessor (PLCC 68-pin), which often makes these types of programs run faster. To install a math coprocessor, follow these steps: 1. Run Setup383 and set Resume to OFF. Then, turn off the computer and remove the battery. 2. Carefully use a pointed object, such as a straight pin, to remove the rubber plug on the back of the computer. Then, remove the screw you expose. CAUTION: Be sure you touch a grounded metal object before you handle the coprocessor. 3. Open the display panel fully as shown. Then, remove the center cover. 4. Carefully install the coprocessor straight down into the socket so that the slanted corner of the coprocessor matches the socket. 5. Replace the cover and secure it with the screw you removed earlier. Then, replace the rubber plug. CAUTIONS: * Be sure you correctly position the coprocessor. Once you install it, you must use a special chip-extraction tool to remove the coprocessor. * Be sure you install the coprocessor correctly. Incorrect installation might damage the coprocessor and computer. (jej-05/10/94)
