Yes. Without that, the power button won't do anything - it won't even
power up far enough to _try_ POST.
I found a manual which says error 203 indicates a DRAM problem. So
I've reseated the RAM (and the ROM for good measure) and I'm still
getting 203 - but when I pull the module and let it use just the
onboard RAM, it boots to WinCE. So it's the RAM module (or something
unique to it, such as an interface chip).
I have another, much smaller, module, which I swapped out in favour of
the module that's in there now; I'll try swapping that in. This module
is Kingston memory, bought from (if memory serves - I'll have to check
this) MemoryX, so there's a good chance it's still under warranty....
