Hello,

Believe me, i was convinced, for about 8 hours, it was the bios.  Since we
have many systems without this problem (same bios settings), i had to
grudgingly come to the conclusion that either the manufacturer had a bad
day, or we did, or both.

Anyway, the problem went seven motherboards deep, and disappeared.  I
believe both the manufacturer and our build team were to blame.  The
solution we found is to add the memory before installing the motherboard.
The stress of adding memory, because the sdram sockets are so tight, appears
to have caused this failure  (probably stress cracks in the traces).  This
means to upgrade memory we will need to remove the motherboard.  Some from
the build team swear this is only a coincidence as memory has been installed
this way before...perhaps:-\

Anyway, i'll pass our solution to Tech Support, maybe they can convince
Pcchips to use different memory sockets.  Somehow i doubt that though...

Thanks,
