I'll take a look. But I think all four rows are soldered in.
Thanks!!!

If it's an IBM XT mainboard, there's an easy
way to do this (and not use
up any expansion slots).
Put 41256 chips in banks 0 and 1, and 4164s in banks 2 and 3 on the
mainboard. Put a 74S158 (or 74F158) multiplexer chip in the emptu socket
at the front right, pointing the same way as the chips around it. Set the
DIP switches for 256K RAM, and solder a jumper wire between pads E1 and E2.
That's it. You have a 640K XT mainboard.
