Indeed one of the SIMMs is bad. Annoyingly this halves the amount of memory and the memory bus width in the box. What are my chances of replacing the faulty SIMM? Can I just substitute any other 72-pin FP-DRAM 8Mx36 (32MB ECC) 60ns SIMM, or are all modules required to be exactly alike? SIMMs of this general type are still available at somewhat unreasonable prices I guess, but finding one that shares exactly the same organization and God knows what parameters seems unlikely. (The SIMMs in place are physically double-sided, with a total of 24 Siemens HYB514100BJ-60 chips from 1997. There's some sort of warranty label, but I can't identify the vendor.) -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
