Rybags Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 The problem with running part of it from Ram is, if the Ram is faulty it makes it likely to crash. Though I suppose they could have it conditional on the initial part running OK. But ultimately, agreed that it's a waste of space. Between that and the 2nd charset you have enough for a resident mini-Dos or half decent Monitor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_The Doctor__ Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 why not just put a decent memory test in place of the crappy one? the old memory test was pretty useless and a bit of a pig... move stuff around a bit and use the available space not just what was used... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
