Hi all, I have a strange one for you guys and would appreciate any ideas you may have.
I have a Cisco 3640 router that is operating normally. It is however using IOS 11.1 and we have bought memory to upgrade this (sho ver below) . We install the DRAM and all is great. Install the flash and the router fails to boot. I don't have any log messages, but the remote support guy says that it (router console) says there is no flash installed in the router. Since this happened previously, we tried another 2 separate 3640 chassis', and this flash memory worked great. Now this leads me to believe there is something wrong with the motherboard on the router. Strangely enough another reboot of the router and everything comes up with the exception of the Token Ring interface - a further look here reports an error about wrong ring number. Nothing has changed at all here. Another reload and the flash vanishes. Reinstall the old flash memory and router is operational again. I know this memory works - used other routers. The ring number error has me totally confused. Upgrades to all other exactly configure sites worked perfectly New flash module is 16MB and old is 4MB Remote>sho ver Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) 3600 Software (C3640-INR-M), Version 11.1(16)AA, EARLY DEPLOYMENT RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) Copyright (c) 1986-1997 by cisco Systems, Inc.
