I was having a problem with a 7600 a while back: after hitting the start up key, I would have to do a 3 finger re-start to get it to boot. I waited several minutes to make sure it wasn't just slow. In the process of trouble shooting the problem, it turned out that there was one particular RAM chip that seemed to be responsible. Once it was removed the problem was gone. Using RAMometer for several hundred passes failed to identify a problem with the RAM. The bad RAM chip was not from VU. I've purchased about 6 or 8 RAM chips from them and haven't found a problem with them so far. tafkar -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
