- File 1632, KAY256.LBR, Library 18 of the CP/M RoundTable, contains
- details on adding 256k of RAM to the Kaypro IV computer (pre 1984
- model) by installing 256k chips in place of the 64k chips. It
- applies equally to Kaypro II's that contain a IV motherboard. The
- design can be used with any 8 bit computer that uses 64k dynamic
- RAM.
-
- This library contains detailed instructions, the circuit schematic
- diagram, and benchmark results (gives an idea of benefits likely on
- disk intensive activities).
-
- No software is included here but if you wish to construct this for
- a Kaypro, the author has written a BIOS that supports the RAM as a
- ramdisk under ZCPR3 and offers it for the asking.
-
- The library has been downloaded from The DataCOM Super Systems(tm)
- (see JUN86.MQG for information how to access this system), which in
- turn came from a caller in London England who only calls once or
- twice a month.
-
- Steve Sanders advises that he does not as yet have the altered BIOS
- code mentioned in the DOC file. It will be available on his BBS as
- soon as he gets it. He did however get the address of the author.
- It is:
-
- Dr. Michael W.D. Liddle
- 21 The Frostings
- Grenoside
- Sheffield, S30 3NZ England

- If you make this modification, please provide feedback in this BB
- section.
