Hi again,

I have had a good look at the card and it seems as if I do have CMI-41 2.4.
For some reason it has been labelled as Rev 2.6 on the bag and on the
pullout handles. In front of the 50 pin connector is a 24 pin inline slot.
This is arranged as 3 rows with 8 female pins in each in a row. Is this
where the RAM memory is placed ? I do not have anything connected to these
pins. In the photo of Michael's it looks like there is a RAM module placed
there.

Regards,
