Well, for the other internal stuff, we know atleast the following works on the Tyan 2885. MFG: WINTEC MFG P/N: 35954754L Description: PC-333. PC2700, 1GB, LOW PROFILE, DDR SDRAM -FSB333, ECC, Registered btw, that PDF that Nakata mentions above is also in english and can be found at HDAMA http://www.rioworks.com/Download/hdama/manual/HDAMA%20MEMORY%20TEST%20LIST.zip HDAMB http://www.rioworks.com/Download/hdamb/manual/HDAMB%20MEMORY%20TEST%20LIST.zip It lists the ATP we're using on our HDAMA's. I'll don't have the info on our Infineon stuff at the moment, but we're using it on the Celestica 4p's with no problem. I've also run it on a Rioworks HDAMA. Buffalo reportedly works on Tyan 2885's *if* you get the right kind. You'd have to ask them which is correct, though. We opted not to use them and stick with ATP for the Thunder's during our testing. > > I've got a case load of Kingston 1GB ValueRAM in which 1 out of 4 DIMM's > is bad. Yeah, we've found memory to be a sticky situation right now. Travis (And yes, David, I'm the same Travis that works at AMD in Austin :-) -- Travis Campbell hcoyote@ghostar.ath.cx
