A IIgs would have *NO* trouble running DOS 3.3 in the motherboard RAM even
if every single RAM chip on the memory expansion card was bad.  My original
problem was this:  I got a ROM 1 IIgs with an original IIgs memory
expansion card with 256K.  I believe that all that memory was good.  I
filled up the memory card with old memory I had laying around and the IIgs
started acting strange.  I wanted a memory checker that would test the
memory on the card; bitbanger was useless in my situation.

If the motherboard memory is bad, then all bets are off.
