Thanks for a pleasant transaction and the regular updates bazzaq.

I have been away with work this week which has been rather frustrating as I knew the A500 would be waiting at home for me. I got back this evening and the first thing I did was connect the old girl up to see if she still works! You'll be pleased to know she works fine.

I've had the case off already though. I've installed 3.1 ROMs and an Indivision. Need more RAM now so that's my next job.

By the way, when I had the cover off I noticed that the chip RAM bank has half of the locations unpopulated. The silkscreen says "512K/1M". So it seems she only has half the potential chip RAM installed there. Could an extra RAM increase be as simple as populating those empty locations with suitable ICs? Would the extra RAM be recognised by the system? I will look into this.

Thanks again for a successful transaction.

Cheers,

BH.

Just read up on the A500 memory hacks. It's quite a complex procedure and achieving a stable result is challenging. But I have the technology!

Enjoying my A500 experience so far - cheers :)
