"AppleWorks Requires 128K" Message
__________________________________________________________________
When attempting to run AppleWorks 2.x or 3.0 on an Apple IIe with 
less than 128K of RAM, the following message will be displayed:  
"AppleWorks Requires 128K".  

The Apple IIe comes equipped with only 64K installed on the 
motherboard.  Thus, to run AppleWorks, at least an additional 64K 
must be installed in the auxiliary slot.  This is generally 
accomplished by installing an Apple Extended 80-column card.  The 
word "Extended" signifies that the 80-column card contains an 
additional 64K of RAM.  Be aware that there are Apple and 
non-Apple 80-column cards which do not contain an additional 64K.  
Apple IIe computers equipped with these "unextended" 80-column 
cards will not be able to run AppleWorks. 

The base memory of 64K can also be expanded by installing an 
auxiliary memory expansion board, which also provides 80-column 
display, in the auxiliary slot (e.g., RamWorks from Applied 
Engineering).

IMPORTANT:  Without at least an additional 64K in the auxiliary 
slot of the IIe, AppleWorks 2.x and 3.0 will not run.  This is the 
case even if  a memory expansion board is installed in one of the 
back slots (such as the Apple Memory Expansion board).  AppleWorks 
2.x and 3.0 will recognize this "back slot" memory only when the 
primary condition of having 64K on the motherboard and at least 
64K in the auxiliary slot has been satisfied.
