I purchased an LBA PRO card for my machine hoping

BTW, I think the LBA PRO is a replacement AT BIOS, and won't work on an XT
(which doesn't have a interface independent BIOS like the AT does.) Having
it on an 8-bit card confuses the issue, but since it's in the lower meg of
address space it doesn't need the extra address lines, and 16-bit memory
access would have meant a 16 bit wide ROM and more expense for card
manufacture..
