My main system has just developed the following malady. The monitor
screen doesn't come on during the first boot up. I have to push the
restart button on the CPU, and the screen comes up on the reboot.
In the best trouble shooting procedures (be it a computer or my 1964
Triumph TR6SS), the very last thing done to the rig was the
installation of Four of the $27, 128mb Dimms from Velocityupgrade.
It is a PowerComputing (Sony) 20" monitor on a PwrCntrPro 240 w/ Sonnet
G3 500/1 MHz card and 9 Gig SCSI Internal H/Disk, THe only thing in the
4 bays is the ATI 128 Rage Video accelerator Cd. OS 9.1
This system is used daily. In the last two months, first the 9 Gig H/D
was installed followed by OS 9.1 then 500MHz Sonnet G3 card. All was
working OK. LAST the dimms were installed. The symptoms developed a few
days later. Running Apple System Profiler, all 4 dims show up as 512mb
and virtual memory shows 513 mb. Disk Cache is set at 10208K. Ram Disk
is off, and AppleTalk is Active.
The extensions load order is CD-ROM Tool kit v4.0.1, Norton
antiVirusv7.0, TechTool Protection v3.0.3, Sonnet Processor upgrade
v1.4.5, Apple Guide 3.5 and ATI Graphics Accelerator 5.2.4.
The 7200 Graphics accelerator v1.0.1, that came with OS 9.1, is not active.
All SCSI peripherals, except an external QUE CD-RW, have been pulled
from the Daisy chain.
