You are probably SOL. If your motherboard uses CHIPS devices which are
not of the NEAT flavor, you are definitely SOL. Look for the 82C202
chip.  I don't know about Zymos or whoever. What I do is put 64K chips
in the motherboard's second bank, as they are real cheap.  Then if I
had the extra 256K chips, I'd buy a expanded memory board and use it
as RAM cache.
