[Ham-Computers] Win 98 Garbage Collector

[Loren Moline WA7SKT]

Dale,

Not knowing the addressing of memory as opposed to working with 8 bit 
address decoders like I did when I build interface boards Im not sure what 
is going on. If I have 1 256 Meg Ram in and it says 128 it could be that the 
most significant bit of addressing is bad to sockets or could be some other 
line.
