Re: A1000/A590 - RAM expansion

;-) I had similar problems with a GVP impact series II expansion drive for my A500.  I added what I thought were 4-meg SIMMS to the board, and moved the jumper accordingly.  Upon reboot, the OS reported a full eight megabytes of fast RAM.

:-? However, if I ran a directory utility and started adding files to the RAM: disk, the 'miggy would crash as soon as it filled up the first two megs.  It seems the SIMMS had only been 1-meg versions.

:-) Replacing those SIMMS with real 4-meg SIMMS did the trick.  Perhaps your situation is similar?
