This file tells how to modify a Western Digital WX1 or WX2 controller card to be compatible with the older Tandy 1000 SX machines. Since the SX used different interrupt routines, a standard card will not operate correctly. This tells how to correct that.
Note: In addition to this ASCII text file, you will need a little technical knowledge. This file was sent to me by ROBNAN503. It is similar to a doc sheet I have at work explaining the same modification, and I have tested this to work properly. However, if you are not technically oriented, or are not very accurate with a soldering iron, have someone else do the changes for you, as you can damage your system if this is done improperly.
