dcer10 Posted July 2, 2006 Report Share Posted July 2, 2006 Has anyone tried to get a 40x2 LCD working on the SID? I have one here I wish to use with it but noticed in the setup there is no 40x2 in the list. If it can use 2 x 16x2 then 1 x 40x2 should be possible shouldnt it?Also does anyone know if the SID works with 8 memory modules yet? Ive got one of the 8 chip boards populated and want to fit it :)Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive got one of the 8 chip boards populated and want to fit it :)Yes it works. Quote from the setup_8580.asm ;; select the BankStick type you are using here: ;; 0: "normal" 24LC256 EEPROM (32k), up to 8 EEPROMs can be connected for 8 banks ;; 1: 24LC512 EEPROM (64k), up to 4 EEPROMs can be connected for 8 banks ;; (it is not possible to mix 32k with 64k EEPROMs, more than 4 64k devices not supported)#define DEFAULT_BS_TYPE 0[/code]I should clarify though, you CAN mix 32k and 64k EEPROMs in "normal" mode, the 64k EEPROMs are treated like a 32k EEPROM (i.e. only uses half). According to the V2 wishlist, 8x 64k EEPROMs will be supported, so there's no point buying 24LC256 chips anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
