Like your 8500, I am now confused. How, if your 8500 won't start up, are you running NUM from your booted hard drive and having problems with Netscape 7?
Three more things to consider: 1) Did you remove the on-board L2 cache? The Sonnet has it's own cache and the problems you're describing can be caused by having the original, on-board cache still installed. 2) Memory interleaving. The Sonnet upgrades don't support memory interleaving, yet with your configuration, some of your memory has to be interleaved. I don't have a solution for this one, although you might put 2 of your old DIMMs back in, provided they're at least 2K refresh. Or, for troubleshooting, you could pull 2 of your 6 new DIMMs and fill all 4 slots in bank A or bank B and leave all 4 slots in the other bank empty. If this proves to be the problem, I'd refer you to Sonnet tech support for a solution. 3) Make very sure the processor card is fully seated. It's harder than you might think... If it's in all the way, the spring on the plastic processor card retaining clip will meet with virtually no resistance.
