I have an SE equipped with a Total Systems Mercury 16 MHz upgrade card and an memory expansion. The SE has 4 MB of ram on the main board and 4 extra megabytes of ram on the RAM expansion board that plugs into the mercury.
In Gemstart 3.0, pressing on "Accelerator Info" it reads the 4 MB of 32-bit RAM, and mentions they are 1 MB SIMM's.
As a new entry since plugging in the board, it mentions "ROM Copied to RAM", which wasn't there before. From what I can understand, the RAM is properly recognized, yet the SE doesn't see it. Read online that I need to get Connectix's Compact Virtual installed for the SE to see the additional 4 MB.
I've installed Connectix Compact Virtual v 3.0.2. With Swap Indicator or Move I/o Addresses toggled/enabled the computer boots up without a hitch. But as soon as I press on Extended Memory and move the slider anywhere from the default 4,096K the SE fails to boot up and hangs on "Welcome to macintosh".
I cannot find any manual for the Total Systems Mercury or for Connectix Compact Virtual. Hoping anyone here has any ideas whatup.
