Clear Memory

Clear memory for new 8088 bds
On the newer style 8088 bds that have the super cap to maintain memory, it is necessary to leapfrog the RAM chips to erase memory. These chips are in the same row as the software chips. They look just like the software but do not have the white label. There are 3 of them. Put the first chip in the second position, the second chip in the third position and the third chip in the first position. This should make the device come up in configure when turned on with the key in program.
