I have an A500 with 1.3 ROM, 1 meg fatter Agnus, A501 expansion, and the
Exp-8000+ memory board with 4 megs of RAM.  I have had no trouble at all with
this configuration.  It has worked fantastic !!

Suggestions:

1- Make sure your 68000 chip is plugged in appropriately.
2- Make sure the EXP-8000 board is set to handle 4 megs of memory.
3- The memory must be placed on the correct row(s) in the board.
4- Call PPS for further assistance at 303-825-2943.
