My Turbo XT Clone (10 Mhz) provides space for 4 banks of 256K chips, allowing a total of 1 Meg. It also provides a ram disk driver to take advantage of the extra space. Will PC tools be able to use the expanded memory if I move up from my current 1/2 meg by adding more chips? Will I need to get some sort of driver to handle the extra memory? How does this machine, if expanded to 1 meg, differ from machines that use other types of memory expansion, such as LIM, etc? Respond by email if you prefer, but I suspect some other folks would like to hear the answers to these questions. Thanks. Carl (not the runner) Lewis
