[Dxspider-support] problems when moving to dxspider

[g3orh]

Hi Dirk;

               Ref P166 and RAM. I originally configured this one on a "Just
to see if" basis. I have two spare 168 pin slots for ram but it's the older
stuff
not the newer and am searching around for some to improve performance.

about the P166. I am currently experimenting with an old P166 with only 16
MB of ram
