I bought some of the M100ROM PCBs thinking they would be usable in the Model 102 but it would appear I am mistaken.

The PCB as documented here: http://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=M100ROM

I built up the PCB last night with a 32K 27C256 EPROM programmed with ROM2 (using the 'new' holes) and found two things:

1. It doesn't fit flush enough to close the door.
2. When I turned the 102 on I got a blank screen.

I cut the trace as instructed for the 27C256, but later the instructions seemed to be a little contradictory as to whether a 27C256 was supported as an option ROM only.

Am I right in thinking that the PCB isn't supported in the Model 102? If that's the case do I have an option to use 'real' EPROMS (as opposed to REX) in the Model 102? Does anyone know if the PCB will work in the 200?

I also remember reading that there was a new, expanded capacity REX in the pipeline. Is that available yet? I may take the easy route yet :)

Thanks for the help,

Mark.
