Where are those 4 Mb of my CV64/3D on my A2000 ???
« on: November 01, 2002, 06:41:13 PM »
I've got several things to find out on my A2000. This is just one of those things. My A2000 has got 1 Mb chip (standard) and 2 Mb fast on the 68030 card.  I thought I would have at least 2 Mb chip memory in my workbench when using the Cybervision64/3D but no way, only have got 1 Mb chip and that's gone very fast. Any bright ideas might be very welcome !!!   ;-)
Oh, I'm also using OS3.9 which does consume a tiny bit more memory ...

So in order to use a gfx card on a A2000 you need to install a MiniMegachip to get 2 Mb of chip ram ??

Damn, forgot something to add. You may be correct Thomas. On my turboboard there is 2 Mb of Ram but since this is far from enough to run OS3.9 I got myself a Nexus scsi card with 4 Mb of Ram so that makes 6 Mb Fast Ram which should be enough. And that's the point where I couldn't find my gfx card anymore. Didn't know you could only add up to 8 Mb of Ram through Zorro ??!
