Re: AW5 on //c+

It must be just your machine.  AW5 boots fine on my IIc+.  I have an Apple
IIc ram expansion card filled with chips I took out of an old 286 so I
have 1 mb ram to work with.  Some people have said that this card doesn't
work with the IIc+ but my card proves that theory incorrect.

When I boot AW5, it reports 999k remaining at the date prompt screen, 954k
remaining after loading the inits, 899k remaining while it preloads AW5,
and after TimeOuts load, I get prompted to enter my info by UltraMacros.
It then accepts the data and transfers me to my main screen.

AW5 requires 256k to even boot so if you don't have a ramcard of some
sort, it's not going to work.
