Hi all,

does anyone know switch configuration in an old RAM memory ISA expansion card manufactured by NCR? It is an ISA 16bit card with a switch packet of 8 positions (in red)

This is a nice card that should fit in a 286. If you dont find a documentation you can try to follow this:
ISA XMS/EMS Memory Extension / Expansion cards: Now Running without Driver / Documentation :-)
Run testx.exe first and report the result in the linked thread.

it looks like NCR made that card. (at very least the ASIC) I would wager this card to be mostly universal and a google search for "isa memory card NCR 30-pin" would strike close to the target.

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
