We have installed several now with only one hitch (bad clock). 1 Meg chip is supported if you have the super agnus (Which is a good idea because the rest of the 'fast' mem is the TRUE fast ram). You already have the 1 meg hack done so its just a matter of installing the Adram as per instructions and away it goes --------------------------------------- | patrick_meloy@outbound.wimsey.bc.ca | | 'The Outbound' BBS Vancouver BC | ---------------------------------------
