Jumper installed ---> ROM enabled Jumper not installed ---> ROM disabled W3 is to the right of U11 with the board oriented with the connector fingers to the right and down. W3 may actually be closed (comes from factory this way) by a printed path on the board; the path must cut (carefully and cleanly) to disable the ROM. Dave Braune AT&T ihnp4!ihlpe!dpbaudra
