	HELP!

	I have one of the original 128k macs that I upgraded to a 512ke
	and then to 1024k. Some of the software I am trying to use that
	requires 1 Meg still will not run because my machine still looks
	like a 512ke. Even MacEnvy identifies it as a 512ke with 1 M of
	memory.

	What do I need to do to make this machine look like a MacPlus?
	Do I need a new clock chip? A SCSI port? Also, are there
	software work-arounds for this (e.g. can I just write a "machine
	type" byte in memory to fool this software that won't run)?

	Any hints would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Charlie Farwell
