Summary: I need more memory!!! Message-ID: <72943@eerie.acsu.Buffalo.EDU> Date: 25 Apr 91 03:10:19 GMT Sender: news@acsu.Buffalo.EDU Organization: SUNY Buffalo Lines: 23 Nntp-Posting-Host: lictor.acsu.buffalo.edu I have come to the realization that I need more memory for my 11/84... I just got done doing a SYSGEN of RSX-11M/PLUS V4.2, with DECNet-11M/PLUS, and DECMail-11, and 128kb cache. This leaves me with about 200kb of 1mb memory for programs... I have a couple standard Q-Bus MSV11-L, MSV11-P memories which I would like to use in my 11/84, but I don't know if anything detrimental will happen. Can I use the -L and -P memories (I don't feel like buying any -J or -Q memories. :-( ) in the 11/84? Will it slow the system down any by using non-PMI memory? BTW, if anyone has any 11/84 memory which they would be willing to sell cheaply, please let me know. Thanks, Chris Kalisiak V076N3W7@ubvms.cc.buffalo.edu kalisiak@acsu.buffalo.edu
