[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Help needed with memory board

Ingvar.Strand@ext.luth.se (Ingvar Strand) (08/19/90)

I have an AST RAMPAGE 286 memory board, it came along when I bought
my computer, it has only 1Mb installed but there are room for 2Mb on board.
I have only used it as an EMS ramdisk, since I didn't think it could
handle XMS.
Recently I've learned that the card is capable of XMS.
The problem is that I have no specifications on the card,
so I don't know how to install it as extended.

There are two dip-switches on the edge of the card, one 10-switch and
one 8-switch, I guess they must be configured some way, but how ?
Or do I need some sort of software driver to enable extended mode ?
My programs have there own drivers but they can't find any XMS.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
