To the TI-99/4A Designers. Is there a way to modify and put a second 32K Memory card into the PEB where 64K would then be the working memory limit? How would...
... Jim: If I recall correctly, TI had made an MMU chip called the 74LS612 which could be made to work but would be better used in an all new memory card. I...
How did they do it in the AMS? Been a while since I heard about this device...I had one ages ago. Know we have a few new folks joining us...the asgard memory...
You'd think if it was that easy, they would have done it with the various
other ram cards.. BUT none of them implemented any type of expansion of TI
memory...

The AMS memory was mapped to the TI's 64k memory space? I thought it was a
bank switch method just like the other ram cards just "faster/better/bigger"

I have a question . Is it possible to use ( 2 ) converted MYARC 512K memory cards with the Geneve 9640. If not how do you ever reach the 2 meg limit of the...
... Yep, it was a card "without a DSR". Basically, it has page registers in memory (like a Geneve) but bank-switches in 4k banks (unlike a Geneve's 8k banks) ...

... Yeah, the AMS card was and is the only "true" memory expansion for the TI-99/4a. It requires a different approach, though, to use. The normal TI doesn't...
