Snagged a NEC Powermate I Friday since I was bored and it had a 3.5/5.25" combo drive in it. System is a 286-8 with 640K RAM and a 40MB MFM drive. Oddly enough once I got it hooked up the system boot, so I guess the CMOS memory is intact.
Kind of odd having only 640K of RAM (didn't most 286 systens come with 1MB?), how do I get into BIOS to see if the extra RAM is turned off?
Also what is the best way to add more RAM on a 286 (if I decide it needs it)?
