I think Ive managed to damage the Additional RAM connector to the upgraded
(PowerPC)daughterboard on a 540. The machine will now only "see" 4mb plus
4mb onboard and doesnt recognise either a 12mb or a 32 mb RAM unit which Ive
tried to use. Consequently we cannot use OS 8 and have had to downgrade to
OS 7.5 to keep a ssystem working
Presumably this is a permanent fault ?and I was wondering as the upgraded
processor is apparently on the daughterboard ?whether it can be taken off
and put on a spare, non upgraded daughterboard that actually works?( the old
original one!)
Any ideas would be very welcomed - was an expensive experiment! (despite the
fact that we effectively got the daughterboard free it had to be shipped
round the globe!)
