  • Patent number: 5463589
    Abstract: A method and system for automatic configuration of memory devices having a same initial address. Initially, all of the memory devices in the computer system are disabled but one enabled memory device. An initial address of the enabled memory device is changed to a new unique address. Then, unless all of the memory devices have been enabled, one previously disabled memory device is enabled to produce a next enabled memory device having the initial address. The steps of changing the initial address of the enabled memory device to a new unique address and enabling a next enabled memory device having the initial address are then repeated until the initial address of each of the memory devices has been changed to a new unique address.
