Appendix 5: If
System
Boot Fails
If you have set the RAM 3000 Deluxe to upgrade base
memory and have installed the board, some AT compatibles
may not start up during the bootup process. This is due to
the possibility that the chips used for upgrading base
memory may be improperly installed or are defective.
If this occurs, remove any other extended memory boards
installed in your AT; then set the board's memory starting
address to either 1 M (lOOOOOH), 1408K (l60000H), or 1536K
(l80000H), depending on the design of your AT mother-
board.
Reboot the system; if the SETUP program reports a
memory mismatch, inform it of only the base memory
already in your system before you install the RAM 3000
Deluxe board. Then run
EV159.EXE
to find the location of
any bad chips. Check if the chips are improperly inserted
(did you bend or break the chip pins and/or improperly
orient the chips?); if the chips are properly inserted, the
RAM chips are defective and must be replaced.
