You can't. 32MB DRAM card + the 4MB on the 755C MB give you a max of 36MB, 40MB
on the later 755s with 8MB on the MB.

Even with the JEDEC SO-DIMM adapter, you can't break the memory ceiling, I've
tried many times with 32MB sticks in the adapter on almost every 755.

On the bright side, either 36MB or 40MB will give you a very nice machine with
W95OSR2 (or OS2) installed.

Regards,

James
