SUMMARY

Various problems have been noticed with Windows NT and some Dell computers during installation. These problems usually occur during Windows NT Setup and generate STOP messages:

MORE INFORMATION

Confusion exists on the compatibility of SIMM memory between the 486 /L, /M, /T, /ME, and 333sl systems and previous models. Use the following information to correctly configure memory on a Dell computer:

486 /L, /M, and /T all use 70ns, nonparity, 72-pin SIMMs with tin-lead contacts, in 4 megabyte (MB) and 16MB sizes. These are not compatible with any other earlier Dell systems.

486/ME systems use 70ns, parity, 72-pin, 2MB, 4MB, 8MB, and 16MB SIMMs with tin-lead contacts. SIMMs used in DE/SE models use gold contacts and are 80ns, so they are not interchangeable. Due to the parity bit, these are also not interchangeable with the /M, /T, and /L systems.


The 333sl uses 60ns, nonparity, tin-lead, 1MB, 4MB, and 16MB 72-pin SIMMs. These are unique to this system due to the 60ns speed.


The part numbers of the SIMMs are different for each "family" of systems noted above, so be sure you are using the correct part for any service activity.

All Dell EISA systems, including the ME, require SIMMs to be installed in pairs. A single SIMM will not work.

NOTE: Memory modules that have mismatched speeds (for example, 70ns and 80ns chips in the same computer) have also been known to produce 7f traps on setup.
