I have a PC/XT compatible and I bought a expanded memory expansion card for
the computer so I can take advantage of expanded memory.  But recently I
have had some strange problems which seems to come from the memory expansion
board (Right now I have only 256K of expanded memory on that board).
Sometimes when I use programs such as Manifest or Norton SI which trys to
check how much expanded memory I have, the system will crash, screen goes
blank and a message appears: "MEMORY ERROR 2"!  If I just use Ctrl-Alt-Del to
reboot, my system will come to the same error message again.  So I need to use
the reset button to reboot the machine.  Does anyone know what is the problem?
Can anyone help me?

Please e-mail me at c60c-2ia@web.berkeley.edu

Thanks in advance,

Wei-Lun
