The computer currently has a 256K Memory expansion board fully populated (25-1004) and a 512K memory expansion board with two rows unpopulated (25-1009). The 256K board has E2 jumpered to E1 and the 512K board has E4 jumpered to E3. What type of memory chips do I need to upgrade the computer (4164-200ns or faster?). What should I change the jumpers on the memory board(s) to? +-----------------------------------+ | Charles R. Meyer | +-----------------------------------+ /* End of text from techsup:comp.sys.tandy */ All boards require 64kx1 150ns RAM. 25-1004 No Jumpers -> 1st board with 128k installed & DMA system = 256k E1-E2 -> 1st board with 256k installed & DMA system = 384k 25-1009 E3-E4 -> 2nd board with 128k installed system = 512k E1-E2 E3-E4-> 1st board with 256k installed system = 640k The first board must be installed and fully populated before the 2nd board is installed.
