HI All,
WELLLLL, I've got a 486/100mhz box with a AMD chip running (ChillyWilly).
When I first fired it up I found that it had only 4mb (4x 1mb 30pin)
memory on board, not enough for Linux. So I pulled 2x 4mb 72pins out of
another computer and put in this one. It has slots for 4x 30pin and 2x
72pin. NO other changes... now it will not run. No screen, no beeps..nada.
It does do the keyboard check, ie the lights flash, then nothing.
Could it be a parity problem with the new memory? If so, how do I tell two
things #1 the parity of the chips and #2 the parity of the board?
BTW, I don't know who made the motherboard. It is a socket 3 type, if that
means anything.
TIA!
