Hi there.
I've just recently got hands on an Everex RAM 8000 board (EV-178).
I'm planning to use it in a Commodore PC40 system (AT-Compatible with an Intel 286).
The only document I've found describing the board is located at
www.student.nada.kth.se/~d94-tan/pckort/ever8000.txt
I've managed to get the EMM.SYS driver mentioned in the above document, but it won't find the board and hence refuses to load - and after some inspection using IDA I guess it's the wrong version, as Control-Ports mentioned in the above document don't match the ones probed by the driver.
I could not, however, find the "EV178.EXE" configuration utility; as the board's almost completely configured via an EEPROM and the utility, I cannot even tell whether it's set to EMS or XMS, 8 or 16bit mode etc.
Does someone still have the config-disk and/or manual lying around? I tried to use the card as XMS, which I would prefer - but that also does not work, so I guess it's configured to EMS.
Any help would be great!
