Okay gang... going back to this conversation a few days ago...
I took a chance and bought some Mac parts from a computer scrapper, sight unseen. Let's see... some worthless floppies, a 7100/66 w/o any simms/dimms whatsoever, a 14" monitor...
...oh! And a Duo 2300c w/ no HD, an okay screen (light brown vertical band
right down the middle of the display) and 56mb RAM. It looks like a
double-decker module; a smaller board fits on the bigger (familiar to me) RAM board...
I use a 280c, and have no intention of upgrading to the 2300c, BUT I would like to upgrade to the 2300c SCREEN and maybe the RAM..
The 2300 screen will not work with a 280 motherboard. People have reported frying the cable upon attempts to do so (I wish I knew why.... anyone know why this happens?)
...but WHY CAN'T I USE the 48mb module in my Duo 280 to give it 52mb RAM??
You might be able to use the module but the motherboard is hardware limited to seeing a 36 MB module. On the other hand, it might just crash the machine.
Thanks, Craig W.
