Hello my patrons! Ah yes, guess what's wrong with this motherboard? Yep! RAM issue.... and strangely it seems to be almost identical the RAM issues on that RAM card I recently worked on., this time it's on the board itself. Seriously, what the f**k is going on!? I started off this video thinking the issues this machine was having were simple ones that I could quickly solve. I was wrong -- I was so very wrong.

So please enjoy watching me struggle to get this thing working. :-)

Thanks so much for your support!

It seems like I just can't escape computers with RAM problems!

could you remove all but the first row of memory and set the dip switches correctly and test one bank at a time to find bad ram?

Lily Finley

What if you removed / disabled all the memory on the motherboard and just used your RAM card for all of system RAM? Would that tell you anything?
