Hi all, I have to ask: does it need only quartz replacement and will the chess clocks work correctly? - because in H8 and 65c02 devices they arent this way... Want to speed-up FD2265 and Scorpio to 20Mhz.
Thanks in advance!

Hallo,
Mit dem Motorola 68xxx reihe gibt es keine externen Quartz. Also die genauen Chipset bestimmt unter anderem die Quartz.

Mind the Last digits on the CPUs indicating the ClockSpeed.

Hello, if its so, why here's written "Tuning: stabil mit 19,66 MHz (Resonator-Tausch), darüber - bis 24 MHz - schnellere Eproms erforderlich" ? I never saw 68000 cpu at 20Mhz itself, only 8/10/12/16 Mhz models...

Novag Scorpio 68000

Yes, the clocks work correctly. Novag has two timer.

Aha, so FD2265 seems to have only 1 quartz for it, am I right?

Yes, right.

Thank You very much! Maybe You can also tell your opinion about memory expanding? I see that both slots for ordinary RAM are the same type as for hash-RAM (DIP-28), so is there any reason to replace 2x8kb planks by 2x32kb... Im asking because I tried this trick with TurboKing but it didnt turn-ON, and I had to put back an old 8kb plank... Probably, motherboard system logic of TK doesnt support 32kb RAM, but with FD2265/Scorpio it looks like it could because device works with hash's 2x32kb...
