Reading some websites yesterday there was also a
bug in early
versions of
the BIOS that meant certain slots in the expander
couldn't be used at
particular ROM addresses, which must've made installing new
cards a fun task
if you didn't know that :)
Impossible!... All the slots in the expansion unit are the same (they're
bussed pin-pin). There is no way that some cards will work in some slots
and not others.
Hm, that makes sense, so all I can assume is the site I was reading was
wrong, unless it's possible for cards not to work in the expansion *period*
because of this bug?
cheers
