I have some questions that I am stuck on:

Is a EMM board able to be used for Expanded System Memory, ie. for
programs that use Epanded Memory.  I do not want to use it as a RAMDISK,
which is the only thing I can see this card do.  It is a Pamarvel Card,
and can hold 2M of extra memory, which, if I can use as Expanded
memory, I will be able to run some of my software much easier.  I also want
to use it as some disk caching.  The software that came with it only allows
to make it as a RAMDISK.

Also:  I have some chips, the numbers on the chips are as follows:
8445-382 and NMC3764N-20  <--- Both these numbers are on same chip.
I was told these could be used as 6164-20's, but I want to know if it
is true.  If so, I have bunches of these that I can do things with!

Please reply via E-Mail, as our news area is limited in space, and if I
don't get on for 2-3 days, thousands of articles are lost.  All help will
be appriciated!
