It's not long for this earth, that machine. Reminds me of the 4-5 SIMM pair on Tyan Tomcat P5 SMP motherboards. They're notorious for not working. I've got a pair of those boards and cannot put exactly 6 SIMMs despite the claims of requiring pairs. It *really* wants SIMMs installed 4 at a time. They were nice boards otherwise though. Brandon D.
