Some of the RAM modules were optimised for the 2300...believe it was a refresh issue, but we're going back a few years here and MY memory is not guaranteed for more than 24 hrs!!

My point was that I've switched a RAM module from a 280c to a 2300 (or was it the other way, it's been a while), and only got half the RAM showing on the second machine. BTW, I have one of those piggyback RAM modules in a machine and wondered where one could get a module to plug into it. Any ideas? TIA.
