    You need the ram exp pack prob, pop open the bottom and see how much ram she has. There's a panel on the bottom.

    Hey , thx !

    But i bought both Pippins as new;
    So, there are no Ram expansions in both systems just the standard (5mb) :-(

    Any idea how much Marathon needs to run fully playable?
    & how expensive are these Add Ons ?

    Japanese pippin has no exp ram as standard unlike US models.

    You need to hunt down an exp module.... GL

    When I had them I was selling prototype 16mb modules for .. a lot.

    You might get by with the standard module, last one I saw went for 80?
