DKB Pal chips ? Know anything?

[save2600]

I just know that some manufacturers such as DKB included or would sell faster PAL's if their customers WCS boards were not up to the task. Is something of theirs not working in or outside of your A1000?

Save, I have this other KwikStart I I'm playing around with, trying to figure if it works. But like I said above, I don't have an extra PAL chip to go with it.

Oh, duh.

Okay... so why in the heck is the PAL chip missing from your Kwikstart? I see someone socketed the PAL on the end of your WCS. I'm guessing that the Kwikstart you have, went with *that* computer since that's the PAL that gets replaced when installing the Kwikstart. Not sure why a PAL on your board would be missing though. I thought they were soldered, not socketed??

I have a spare WCS board, but am not certain if simply desoldering U6J and slapping her in the Kwikstart would work or not.

Would you post a pic of your Kwikstart board?

Did you try removing U6J from the WCS pictured and slap it into the Kwikstart yet?

After removing the chip, do NOT plug the WCS daughtercard in to test this. If that PAL works with your board, you'll then be able to see which version of Kickstart is on your Kwikstart...
