@ Jope
I've attached the magazine article, the text jumps around a bit on the pages and is difficult to follow in places.
The article mentions the 8372A and 8372B being interchangeable but doesn't talk much about the 8375 Agnus compatibility - where can I get a comparison of the pinouts of the different versions to check the compatibility?
I am looking to upgrade the A500 to 1Mb on the main motherboard with the RAM chips from the A500+, the 500 had four chips whereas the 500+ has eight on the main board, if I add four that will make a 1Mb machine won't it? I have an 0.5Mb A501 to put into the trapdoor to end up with 1.5Mb in total if my plan works, is this possible?
@ zipper, can you talk me through what you did on your machine?
You guys need to realise that I do this stuff for the challenge, I am not called Merlin for nothing, my soldering iron is a magic wand in my hands, I just don't want to wreck a working A500 by trying the impossible or by putting the wrong Agnus chip in the socket.
I have the chips, so why not?
