A possible fix for the broken tabs on that memory card is to hot glue the SIMM after it is installed. I have done this on many Mac Plus memory sockets and it worked like gangbusters way back then.

Items F/S Prices do not include shipping from 19401 S/E PA Books $1.00 each Library & School Cast-offs. Well used but complete. Programming the 6502, Rodnay Zaks Programming the Apple, Campbell/Zimmerman Apple II+/IIe Troubleshooting and Repair Guide, Brenner Basic. An Introduction to Computer Programming With the Apple, Bent/Sethares -------- Sirus 8 Meg Ram Card.......$10 Must sell as is! Includes Original Utility disk and instruction sheet. Unfortunately, I have never been able to keep a stable system at 8 megs with this card, or for that matter any Sirus Card I've owned. I believe I have tried everything possible, new and tested SIMMs, different configurations, DMA on/off etc with no success. That said I have used it successfully at 4 megs for the past two days without problem. Two more warnings. 1. In the process of trouble shooting the card, fumble thumbs here broke off the small ends that hold the SIMMs in place. They still fit tight and don't seem to have caused the problem as the damage was done well after the problem started. 2. I had a similar card that I had sent to someone. He said it arrived damaged and he could not use it even at 4 megs. I hope this will not be a duplicate problem but I must sell it as is. BTW I did make good on the purchase refunding the money to him but unfortunately the card was apparently lost in the mail when it was returned to me. ---------- Vitesse Quickie Scanner W/ Color Scanner Add-on for GS $50.00 Hand Scanner/Interface Card Box, Manuals and Software, Original Disks include several versions of the software and the Color NDA. (AFAIK There was no stand alone version of the color software.) The hand scanner already has its portion of the color adapter attached. Two known flaws. 1. The mounting plate for the dongle has broken off. I got around this problem by connecting the scanner before closing the lid of the GS and just leaving it connected. 2. The glass plate on the adaptor has recently come off. No damage but it may need to be reglued. -------------- Motorolla World Modem 28800 $1.00 Includes Power Supply and Cable. Flaws? Indicator lights don't. Otherwise works fine on my GS with Spectrum & ProTerm. BTW in a twist of weirdness the Custom GS Hardware Handshaking cable I have doesn't work on this modem but the original Mac cable works fine. ----------- GS 1 meg expansion card. It has 512K on it and both jumpers. $1.00 ---------------- The Supercars. Software Add-on for Test Drive 2. $1.00 Still Shrink wrapped. (I know, I know, Anyone with a heat gun and the know how can shrink wrap, but I didn't. <G>) ------------ The Graphic Exchange $1.00 (untested) Original Software Disk, Original Backup (from Roger Wagner Publishing) and Mac Utility Disk. Original Manual. ------------ Best, Pete Paul ________|||_o.o_|||________ -- Apple2list is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Apple2list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/apple2.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/apple2list%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
