Hi everyone,
I got a 256K 8bit memory expansion board for my 5170. Hoping to expand it's memory from 512K to 640K. I think I set the switch in the memory board correctly according to it's manual. But when I plug the memory card in, I got not response from the computer when starting up. So I removed the card and thinking the system will be back to normal, but it didn't. Just the black screen when power up.
I tried couple tests including remove all the cards on board, disconnect the power from the motherboard and switch the ram chips around. But still get no responds.
What would possibly be damaged in my system? My 5170 is type-1 motherboard.
