I'm restoring a working IBM-AT and I can't get the 256k memory on the AST "Advantage" memory expansion card to be recognized.
There are 3 mini-switch boxes on the board, with 8 switches on each, that I have no idea how to configure without an owners manual for it.

Also need drivers for the AST (if they exist?), plus drivers for the INTEL "Above Board" memory card. Google isn't helping...:(

Any help in finding these in hard copy or download format is appreciated!

I will pay shipping, and extra bucks if necessary, for any of the above.

Thanks,
-John O'C.

Thanks again Modem for a superior response!

This will allow me to use the extra memory on the AT. :)
...and my printer will get a workout--hehehe

I've got at least drivers for the above board and an AST Rampage card, I've send you a private message.

Will "Rampage" drivers work for the "Advantage" board? Or do the three switches
on the Advantage board configure it without drivers?

Correct.
