aluisi · Oct 1, 2004

No i havent tryed that yet. What does it do clear every thing on the board? If this fixes it you rock

I've had a number of board - I've kinda taken to the thinking that any memory error = might as well chuck it in the bin.

Unless you are amazing at soldering!

When you say memory error are you talking about backup memory or video ram?

Hmm.

I'm curious to know what those sockets are for after seeing tthose pics.

Ealier when I saw this post I tried to see if the 4 slot in my Big Red has those or chips in them..
But I can't see ..I have to take off the back of the cab to check..

I'll check tomorrow if no one replies/knows.

My boards have slots empty like that - it's standard....

unless that's why some of mine don't work!!!

aluisi · Oct 2, 2004

I have no clue what thoughs slots are for. Ohhh and it said Video ram error thats why I first changed my vid ram chips.

aluisi · Oct 2, 2004

okay so i took the battery off let it stand for 24 hours. I hoping it would clear out the bios and make is work but it still wound work this is the error I get

VIDEO RAM ERROR
Address 00000E41
Write 5555
Read 5551

I have changed my video ram chpis out. Mabye the ones I got were bad i dont know .Where can you get video ram chips from? I goot new ones and the slots on ebay. I hope its just that one of them are bad or is my board just DOA

Is there any other thing I am missing? Can some one out there fix my board? Please help me I dont want to spend another 200 for a 4 slot

ash :very_ang:

It would be very strange if you swap out the ram chips and still get the indetical error, same numbers and same address. To me though would more suggest the problem is elsewhere, maybe a faulty trace?
