I'm busy getting my A4000/060 back into working condition after it lying dormant for a few years and I've come across something quite strange with the amount of memory being reported on the CS Mk II;

I know for a fact it has 4 x 32Mb SIMMs installed, which is obviously 128Mb, but the 'Other Memory' as displayed in the screen title by Magellan 2 states I have 134Mb?

There are no motherboard SIMM sockets populated, other than the 2Mb Chip RAM so I don't have any extra coming from there so where's the other 6Mb coming from?

Strange? Fault? Something else? :roll:

TIA
Daniel

@keropi

Nope, nothing else in the machine other than CV64, Ariadne II and Multiface III.

1,000,000 bytes != 1,048,576 bytes

128 MiB = 134,217,728 bytes
