[TI-H] Re: TI-89 HW2 overclocking
just to make sure you are aware, allot of programs
on the 68k calcs take advantage of the ram layout... by adding 0x40000 (256k) to
pointers, some protections built-in by TI can be bypassed. Kernels do this as
well as ppg (compressed) programs and event hooks...
there is memory mapped io too...

Yah, its 2 128k chips. You shouldn't use more memory then the
m6800 in
the 89 can address since that's just a waste of money. Does the
Ti-89
use all of its Addressing space?

instead of the 256K one? but the 89 uses two 128K
chips...
