Hi everyone,
I recently became the owner of an Apple IIc...
Even before I got the computer, I already had a "Checkmate MultiRAM C" memory expansion lying around. I also had the matching RAM chips on hand to fully populate the card.
Since I want to use an SP2SD with the machine, I swapped the original "255" ROM for a "ROM4x" and modified solder jumpers W1 and W2 accordingly.
I wanted to check if the RAM expansion was actually working, so I first asked the AI Grok how to go about it...
The answer and test procedure: First, enter the Monitor using `call-151` and run the following test:
C073:00 ; IIc internal Aux bank (Bank 0)C003C005C00900:1100 ; should show 11 => OK
C073:01C003C005C00900:2200 ; should show 22 => OK
C073:00C003C005C00900 ; should show 11 again (not 22!) => shows 22.
I don't put too much stock in what the AI says, though, so I thought I'd ask here: is this test supposed to work this way, or is there something else I should try?
OK, unfortunately I can't edit my post, so here is the test again, a bit more readable.
C073:00 ; IIc internal Aux bank (Bank 0)
C003
C005
C009
00:11
00 ; should show 11 => OK
C073:01
C003
C005
C009
00:22
00 ; should show 22 => OK
C073:00
C003
C005
C009
00 ; should show 11 again (not 22!) => shows 22.
