Sounds like a memory problem from what info I dug up... Try re-seating the
SIMMs, or if you have four in there, try all combinations of two at a time
to see if you can find the bad one...

Or is it the same Multia as from one of these previous messages?

**********

On the subject of physical problems with multias, how about those little
(about 5 by 3mm) black things on the underside of the board? While sliding
the board out of the case, I seem to have knocked one of them off the board
with that round thing that the board uses to attach to the case. There are
only two contacts on it's bottom. What is this part and how hard is it to
fix this one?

So much for testing with different amounts of swap enabled, my multia
suffered from heat death yesterday. I have no problem replacing the blown
IC, but I can't seem to find the replacement part anywhere! Any pointers on
where I can find this one?
