Re: Sandpoint & random crashes?

Hi, Ron!

On Mon, Sep 11, 2000 at 04:53:00PM -0700, you wrote the following:

Another possible hardware related problem might be that the Dink
monitor is not programming the SDRAM controller with the right
parameters for that DIMM module ( I assume the sandpoint uses DIMMs
).  I'm not sure if the monitor reads the param data from the
module's eeprom or is manually configured and stored in CMOS ram.

It's a SIMM module. Does that make any difference?
(You can see it at:

Anyway, have you run any memory tests?

No, how do I do that? What memory test applications are there for this
platform?
