Hello PC Fans, Santa brought me an Intel "Inboard 386/PC"!!! What a guy, eh..? The Inboard comes with 1 meg RAM and unfortunately collides with the 384K RAM on the AST Six-Pak Plus board. Right now I have the RAM on the six-pak turned off. Since the documentation on the six-pak has disappeared, does anyone know if I can configure the RAM on the six-pack into additional extended memory..? -- Chris Vinson, Citicorp(+)TTI, 3100 Ocean Park Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90405 ROLM phone: 213-450-9111 x2345 vinson@ttidca.tti.com | ...!{philabs,psivax,pyramid,csun}!ttidca!vinson

Check your bus connector, it's an 8 bit board. Sorry, no extended memory without 16 bits. In the system you described, the AST board could be used for LIM expanded memory or AST's EEMS.

Sorry, but the AST-Sixpak will not support Extended menory. One problem is that the PC bus only supports 1 meg of address space, so what you get on the Inboard is it for extended memory Bob Headrick ** standard disclaimer on **
