I down-loaded pkx35a35.exe.1 from simtel20 and kermited to my z100. I then
tried to run it to extract the pkarc programs. It returned a message
immediately complaining "program is to big to fit in memory".

I have a z100 with 768k memory (old motherboard, upgraded with FBE's kit). This
upgrade was done over a year ago. I also put in a CDR's speed module and a
FBE's SmartWatch not too long ago. I replaced the 8088 chip by a NEC's v20 in
the mean time. Could the latter upgrades cause memory/addressing problems?

The video memory tests showed errors. It said to replace chip u353. Could this
be the problem? Where can I order a replacement chip?

I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
