You may want to try the following, if you have an Intel Above Board with
NO DIP-SWITCHES.

1. Turn off computer and open case.
2. Insert the Intel Above Board in a 16-bit slot.
3. Bootup with MS-DOS.
4. Run the setup program for the Intel Above Board and tell it that you
   want EXTENDED MEMORY (not expanded LIM memory).
5. Now tell the CMOS setup that you have more memory.

I'm not sure if this will work, but if the Intel Above Board has no switches,
the board setup is stored on the board somewhere.  You must change this setup
in order for the system to recognize the EXTENDED memory on this board.  Other-
wise, the board maybe set for EXPANDED.

I hope this helps.
