- Dear John -
- I - amongst another - got up with this "nasty rumor".
- Because last summer I upgraded my WE/040 with 2x32M of RAM - and of
- course it comes up with 64M, but when running Ligtwave or ADPro with
- projects larger than 32M of RAM, my system goes down, but as long as I
- keep running with up to 32M it works well.
- The RAM is OK.
- My technical consultant and deliverer of the Card, can not find the
- fault, he IS an expert, delivering Amiga Sytems for the past 10 years
- - and still do.
- So I think there must be something wrong with my card, but I have
- decided to use it - and get it fixed with the upgrade to 060 - when it
- comes.
- The card is exelent - in all other ways - and I would not change it
- for any other card! It should be the Motherboard of the Amiga!
