AT&T 6300 PC WITH DESQVIEW & RAMPAGE
When configuring the motherboard on an AT&T 6300 for use with
DESQview and a RAMpage board, the user may have to remove DRAM
chips from the motherboard in order to "back-fill" with RAMpage
memory.
It is important to check the version of ROM BIOS being used in
the 6300 PC before removing any memory chips. Having the wrong
version in the machine may cause memory errors.
If the ROM you are using is version l.2l or below, errors will
occur. There must be chips present in the sockets, so use 64K
chips instead of the 256K chips that are there to get the memory
down to 256 K.
Using ROM BIOS version 1.43 or above will allow removal of chips
from the motherboard without having the empty sockets causing
memory errors.
An upgrade containing ROM BIOS version l.43 is available from
AT&T.
