One time I had an HP SP750 server... the one with the 10 slot Rambus memory board, with a lot of rules that had to be followed, which pairs of slots (dual channel) to load in which order, with dummy sticks to fill in the unpopulated slots. I tried installing various operating systems, but they always hung at some (different each time) point in the install process... couldn't even install DOS. It took me a long time, swapping sticks in and out and around and about, but eventually, I identified one single stick in a full set of 10 that had intermittent write failures. So much fun... so little time. -- -wittig http://www.robertwittig.com/ . http://robertwittig.net/ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] & you will be removed. Yahoo!
