When he remembered that he might have not signed the check, Mercer made out another for the same amount, instructing the bank to destroy the other -- especially if he had happened to have absent-mindedly signed both of them.

When he said it, they thought it exceedingly profound, though none of them understood it, since it was simply the amount of time that Mercer had been on Shayol:

When a request for change is received, it may undergo a preliminary review to determine if the requested change is compatible with the organizations business model and practices, and to determine the amount of resources needed to implement the change.

When insured parties experience a loss for a specified peril, the coverage entitles the policyholder to make a claim against the insurer for the covered amount of loss as specified by the policy.

When the number of particles in one excited state exceeds the number of particles in some lower-energy state, population inversion is achieved and the amount of stimulated emission due to light that passes through is larger than the amount of absorption.

When speaking in terms of a labor theory of value, value, without any qualifying adjective should theoretically refer to the amount of labor necessary to the production of a marketable commodity, including the labor necessary to the development of any real capital employed in the production.

When voltage is applied, the liquid crystals shift to a tilted position allowing light to pass through and create a gray-scale display depending on the amount of tilt generated by the electric field.

When EMR interacts with single atoms and molecules, its behaviour depends on the amount of energy per quantum it carries.

When an individual is leaving the UK with an amount of Methadone that exceeds 500mg, a Home Office Export Licence is required which should be arranged by the prescriber.

When Rome and Carthage made peace in 241 BC, Rome secured the release of all 8, 000 prisoners of war without ransom and, furthermore, received a considerable amount of silver as a war indemnity.

When the boot loader detected a CP / M floppy, the Aster would reconfigure its internal memory architecture on the fly to optimally support CP / M with 60 KB free RAM for programs ( TPA ) and an 80 x 25 display.

When in “ 7800 ” mode ( signified by the appearance of the full screen Atari logo ), the graphics are generated entirely by the MARIA graphics processing unit, all system RAM is available and game data is accessed in larger 48K blocks.

When the PC starts up, the first job for the BIOS is the power-on self-test, which initializes and identifies system devices such as the CPU, RAM, video display card, keyboard and mouse, hard disk drive, optical disc drive and other hardware.

When referring to RAM sizes it most often ( see binary prefix adoption ) has a binary interpretation of 1024 < sup > 3 </ sup > bytes, i. e. as an alias for gibibyte.

When a computer is first powered on, it usually does not have an operating system in ROM or RAM.

When these were clipped or soldered onto the 68000 processor, a 32 MHz 68030 processor could be used, and up to 16 MB RAM.

When a computer system hibernates it saves the contents of the RAM to disk and powers down the machine.

When running Apple DOS, it was possible ( at the expense of clearing the current BASIC program from memory ) to switch between Applesoft BASIC and Integer BASIC by typing either INT ( to enter Integer BASIC ) or FP ( to enter Applesoft BASIC )— provided, of course, that the requested language was either in ROM or loaded into RAM.

When one of these paths repeatedly changes its state from available to not available ( and vice-versa ), the BGP router controlling that path has to repeatedly add and remove the path record from its routing table ( flaps the path ), thus spending local resources such as CPU and RAM and, even more, broadcasting useless information to peer routers.

When all drawing operations are considered complete, the whole region ( or only the changed portion ) is copied into the video RAM ( the " front buffer "); this copying is usually synchronized with the monitor's raster beam in order to avoid tearing.

When providing maintenance or making emergency repairs, Peak booted the MAI computer, causing the MAI operating system to be loaded from the hard disk into RAM.

When extra RAM was needed, driver software would temporarily make a piece of expanded memory accessible to the processor ; when the data in that piece of memory was updated, another part could be swapped into the processor's address space.

When expanded by adding a TRAM ( Texture RAM ) module to the board, the amount of texture memory can be increased to 4 MB.

* When the notch is located slightly closer to the center of the board, it generally ( but not always ) indicates that the RAM is of the DDR2 type.

When it was first released, one review noted " QuickDraw GX isn't for everyone and requires more RAM than many Macs have to spare.

When seizing evidence, if the machine is still active, any information stored solely in RAM that is not recovered before powering down may be lost.

When ET_DYN executables — that is, executables compiled with position independent code in the same way as shared libraries — are loaded, their base is also randomly chosen, as they are mmap () ed into RAM just like regular shared objects.

When the RAM buffer becomes full, it is then swapped to the hard disk taking both less time and less space.

When the product finally shipped after years of hype, users were dismayed to find that to install it required a machine with 2. 5MB of RAM minimum, and really needed 4MB to run well.

When the RAM is added, both

When installed in 32-bit versions of Windows XP Service Pack 2, 300 MB of free space, a 300 MHz processor, and 256 MB of RAM is required.
