     I need some information on switch setting for a TI 1100.  We have one at
work running Xenix with 2mb.  The system is has a AT compatible bus with 512K 
on the mother board and the remainder of memory in a 12mb ram drawer.

     My problem is this:

     The ram drawer uses standard simms.  Right now we have 6 256kx9 simms 
installed.  I would like to upgrade to 1 meg simms ( the board will accept
them).  Now comes the problem, in most 286 systems I've delt with you need
to set dips on the motherboard to identify the type of simms used, but I
have no docs on the system.  TI wants way to much for their simms which are
just standard anyway ($400 512k!)  If anyone knows how to get hold of the
switch settings or knows them you help would be greatly appreciated.

     If I have to I'll just fill the ramaining simm sockets with  512k simms
but that would be a waste.

     Thanks in advance for any help.
