Hi, > The semiconductors with the most "aging problems" I have ever seen is memory - any kind of memory, be it roms, flash, D-Ram, S-Ram etc. If POST doesnt work, check the BIOS rom.
In my experience, CONTACTS are often the problem. And if it is a board from China, you must check elco's as well, better replace them all. Is it Intel or Asus or xx? > ..*all* memory? Including cache? I remember P133's had external cache, > sometimes on COAST modules, sometimes soldered directly to the board. On my old bord, I could disable the caches with jumpers, that may give you a possibility to locate the problems, turn all cache off.
