From article <13417@watdragon.waterloo.edu>, by kgschlueter@violet.waterloo.edu (Kevin Schlueter): > Myself and a friend are having trouble getting our LUCAS boards to work > with expansion memory. He owns a starboard, I own a "rambo 2" (an > autoconfig, external, 2 meg memory box made by a company no longer in > business). Interesting. The LUCAS board is designed for a 1000, but when a friend of mine came visiting from Orlando he brought his board and we tried to install it in a 500 (the 500's cover had to remain off). The 500 has 1.5MB in an external box (I don't know the manufacturer's name) and the same thing happened at boot-up, although the 500 got a little bit further: the WorkBench screen would come up, but when we attempted to execute anything, the machine would bomb. Obviously it passed the auto-config stage (this is 1.3), AND was able to read/execute the programs in the startup-sequence ... why would it wait until WB time to hang-up?? I realize this doesn't help your problem at all, but perhaps it'll lead someone to the cause... ---- Frank "Crash" Edwards I don't have a cute .signature
