Is there some critical reason for this or can I use disk caps like I have for everything else? (I like things I can't plug in backwards 8-) (As a side question, do disk caps = polarized tantalum caps? I didn't deal with caps much in my soph circuit theory lab 3-4 years ago. But the disks I put in did not have much in the way of printing on them, so I think I'm OK.) Also, what positions should J1 and J2 be in? I assume that J1 should be A12 -> 1M4M for 1Mb SIMMs and A23 for 4Mb SIMMs. (Is that really A23 or should it be A13?) I am also guessing that on J2, A22 -> BANKS is for 1Mb and A24 -> BANKS is for 4Mb. Is this correct? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Buller jonb@vector.dallas.tx.us ..!texbell!vector!jonb FROM Fortune IMPORT Quote; FROM Lawyers IMPORT Disclaimer;
