INCOMPATIBLE DRAMS FOR RAMPAGEPLUS/286
|
||
|
||
|
||
Memory errors in a system which can be attributed to a RampagePlus/286 (part
|
||
number 202349-001) being present may actually be caused by the use of certain
|
||
manufacturers DRAM chips on the SIMMS present on the board.
|
||
|
||
SIMMS which are used to upgrade memory on the RampagePlus/286 have AST part
|
||
numbers 202279-002, 202280-002, and 202320-002. The DRAM chips which are
|
||
incompatible with the RampagePlus/286 are manufactured by Motorola and
|
||
Toshiba. The memory chips are of the 256KX4 type (three IC's present on the
|
||
SIMMS).
|
||
|
||
If memory errors or system lock-ups are being experienced, remove all SIMMS
|
||
containing these DRAM chips and substitute with other SIMMS. Other
|
||
manufacturers DRAM chips approved for the RampagePlus/286 are:
|
||
|
||
Mitsubishi M5M44256AP-10
|
||
NEC UPD4242556C-10
|
||
OKI MSM514256-10RS
|
||
TI TMS44C256-10N
