Hi Doc,
the manual says, that you can run either no-parity, parity or ECC FPM Simms ...
... i only tested no-parity and parity simms (32 MB), and both work.

BTW: the no-parity Simms are called unprotected Simm Modules in the manual,
and are listed as XX * 36, but this seems to be an error, as 'normal' XX * 32 Simms will do the job !

I've tried some Kingston KTC1481/64 modules as well (64 MB parity), but for these, only 32 MB will be
detected ...
