Power outages are typically accompanied by 
transient surges of power. If you have not 
already, consider adding a line filter/surge 
protector to protect your computer, RamKeeper 
and the battery. Surge protectors are available at 
most computer stores and Radio Shack®.
AE RamKeeper doesn’t appear in Desk Accessories
◊
You need to copy the file
AERAMKEEPER
from the
ROM Disk to the
DESK.ACCS
folder in your boot
disks System folder. (See Loading the 
Firmware” in Chapter Two.)
Can’t boot from floppy drive
◊
Slot 5
must be set to Smart
Port
and
Startup
Slot
should be set to Scan in the IIGS Control
Panel.
“Invalid RK Configuration” Message
◊
you get this message when you try to boot, it is 
because the card on back of the RamKeeper in a 
two card arrangement is not configured with a 
multiple of 512K. The back card must have 512K, 
1 Meg, 1.5 Meg, 2 Meg, 3 Meg, etc; 256K and 768K 
on the back card will not work.
Can’t change ROM Disk size to more than 2,048K
◊
You have reached a ProDOS block boundary.
You’ll need to reinitialize the ROM Disk for a
new setting of more than 2,048. (See “More than
2 Meg” in Chapter Two.)
“Unable to Load PrODOS” Message
◊
If you’re trying to boot from ROM, the system 
folders must be on the main level (the root 
directory) of the ROM disk. If you dragged the 
icon of the System disk to the AEROM disk (using 
the Finder), all the boot files will be in a folder of 
their own on AEROM. You’ll need to open this 
folder, use the 
Select All
option, and drag the
folder’s contents to AEROM. You can throw away 
the now-empty folder.
