Reckon your only option is gonna be a ram board. You certainly can't just changethe chips on the board. There are a number of people who supply these boards.

If you only want DOS then you need expanded memory (some DOS apps recognise thisstuff). Extended is not much use in DOS. If you wanna run windows you need
to determine the processor type. If its 8086 stick with expanded memory. If
it's a 286 go for extended.

If you're using DOS extra memory can only be useful to those apps that recognise it.
