I'm pretty sure that your 1000TX has an 80286 processor. Particularly for running applications like Windows 3.0 an extra 2Mb of EXTENDED memory would be nice. However, the boards that were made for the Tandy 1000 series (I had a PBJ) were only LIM EMS 3.2 EXPANDED Memory (Windows can use LIM 4.0 memory in Real Mode - can't do much with LIM 3.2 memory).... So. I'd have to say that you are out of luck - (I upgraded to a 386 clone last fall). tim
