That 66MHz RAM won't work!
StarMax computers have three slots for memory modules(or DIMMs).
The computer will work with a minimum of 16Mb to a maximum of 160MB.
� Slots can accept 16,32,and 64 MB DIMMS
� DIMMS must be 168-pin,3.3V unbuffered Extended Data Out(EDO),
60 nanosecond RAM accsess time or faster.
� The slot marked "single bank" can accept a 16MB, 32MB, single bank
DIMM, as installed at the factory. These single banked DIMMs often
appear to be double banked, when they are ELECTRICALLY single banked.
NOTE: This slot accept a "dual bank" DIMM, but will waste half of it.
� The remaining DIMM slots, marked "dual bank", can accept single or
dual bank of size 16MB, 32MB, or 64MB (NOTE: 64MB DIMMs must use
11-bit row address,2 KB refresh).
