I've got a 5160 with 192k of memory installed. I need either a 384K or a 512K memory board for it. Anyone out there have one they can part with?
tnx!

You can add another row of 64kB directly to the montherboard in the fourth bank. There should be sockets there.
Check if your motherboard is the 64-256 or 256-640 version. The latter can take 640kB directly on the motherboard (2 banks of 64kB, 2 banks of 256kB), whereas the former can take 256kB (4 banks of 64kB).
Early boards can be upgraded to the 256-640 style too :)

Thanks dongfeng, it's been WAAAY too long since I've worked on an XT. :)
Jameco has 41256 chips for .62 in the quantity I need (18). I can recall the last time I needed to buy some of those - I paid over $10 each for them!
