HI Rick
maybe it's time now get out the old 'freezer aerosol' and see if you can
force a permanent failure !
the other component widely know to produce random errors is the power
supply.
HTH

Thanks for the info. I do fill the first RAM slot, or fill up Bank O
first. It seems that nothing is going to make this PC work like it did when
it was new. Maybe it's something else.

Hi Rick,
if you are using more than one stick of ram try running just one stick in=
the first slot.
If thing work without problems try adding more.
Frequently strange problems can be traced to miss matched ram.

Does anyone know of a simple way to check compatibility of RAM chips to
motherboards??? I have been working on an older IBM system that had many
errors on it, and I also added new ram chips to it. Now, it still has many
errors after I do a complete restore. It seems that every time I restore
this pc, and I've done this about 10 different times so far, I get=
different errors using the same restore cd's. I don't get them when I do the
restore, I get them after it boots to Windows, using Win/98SE. Sometimes, it
doesn't happen for a few days after I restore it, then I'll get errors on
it. Also, now when I reinstall the old ram chips, I still get errors. I
can't seem to pinpoint why the errors are happening now, because they are
NOT the same errors every time. Sounds like I need to use my sledge hammer
on it and= have them buy a new one. Thanks for any help from anyone.
