Parity simms...
I've just hacked away at the Dallas RTC chip
and grafted a new battery onto
the top - I'll know in a moment if it works...
Well, it's promising on the battery front, but then the setup floppy (which
was in the machine when I found it) went bad. I wrote a new one from a
downloaded image, but then the machine suddenly coughed up a memory error
during a power cycle. Maybe it's cursed.
If they're just plain 'ol 72-pin simms, I *may* have a generic x86 PC which
uses them, and which I can borrow from. I'll try reseating what's in there
first though, just to be sure.
cheers
