Any suggestions? I checked the battery and ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Try looking in Appendix F of the A500 Manual (Introduction to the AMIGA 500). Page F-11 has a schematic of a 512k expansion ram card with a battery backed up clock (looks a lot like an A501 schematic to me). In fact, I used this schematic to build my own 512k memory expansion. (haven't built the clock circuit yet though). I warn you however, that the schematics im my A500 manual (copyright 1987) are not entirely accurate. (at least they do not exactly match the circuitry in the A500 which the manual came with) -Ray
