I've scrounged a memory card out of a scrapped AT-clone, but don't have the
documentation or software that came with it.  I need help figuring out how
it's supposed to work and how to set the switches and jumpers so that I can
use it in another AT clone with a different configuration.

There is a label on the board, probably from some distributor's inventory
control system, which says:
	    Everex Evercom Card, Memory, AT w/0K
	    EVE-RAM8000 699755EVE13191

There are sockets for four banks of 18 memory chips.  Two of the banks are
stuffed with 1Mb 80nS DRAMS.  There's also an 84-pin ASIC with the following
labels:
	    EVEREX
	    ICC-00160-0
	    7061-0011
	    9035EAY JAPAN

There's a block of four DIP switches labelled "BOARD ADDR" near the ASIC.
There are also two 2-pin jumpers, labelled "JP1" and "JP2".  The board came
to me with switches 1&2 on, 3&4 off, JP1 open, and JP2 shorted.  I *think*
JP2 is the parity interrupt enable, but everything else is guesswork.

Please email responses to stevet@pogo.wv.tek.com.  Thanks,
