TI SAM's card - Damn! - Nothing lasts forever I guess...

[- Ω -]

Now that I got my TI hooked back up, I thought I'd test the SAM's card...

I've had minor trouble with all of the memory expansion boards I've tried on TI.  It feels like the timing has to be just right for it to work.  For the three solutions I've tried, all of them were finicky and may not work correctly upon first booting.  Usually, a few reboots fixed them.  Also, cleaning the expansion card connectors helps.

This a "contemporary" SAMS or a "vintage" one?  Wonder if it's just a matter of a bad RAM chip....

Thanks, I'll try that when I get the time, it might be a week or two though.

It's not a vintage board, it one of the first batch Ksarul made.  I'll switch it out for one of my original 32K boards and retest and while it's out of the box I'll clean the contacts.
