Hi everyone, hope someone has an idea to help. Ok, I went to a hamfest and bought a 286-10, fellow said it worked good, brought it home and it doesn't work. found that either the motherboard and/or the memory chips had been changed, when it is turned on, get 1 beep followed by 3 beeps, according to my book, there is a parity error. I do not have a copy of this board, I didn't get book, I think it is an early 286 or at least it is different from the board shown in the Sams troubleshooting manual. The memory chips are km4164b-12 There are 4 rows for 9 chips, d-0 to d-7 and one blank (I assume this is for parity) I have a total of 18 chips available, but just wanted to get it running with 640k if possible. The cpu appears to be MB654304U, by the way, I have had some discussion about whether the battery has to be in unit (It is missing in this one) I bought this for my son who just started at DeVry, and I would really like to fix it so he can get on the net. Any help would be appreciated. thanks Jim Sims Sr. N4JDP re_sims@vax.muskingum.edu
