Can anyone assist with overcoming the Semisimac pattern when installing 128mb RAM. I don't get the pattern when I have 64mb installed, but adding the additional 64mb creates the issue. I am running in 32bit mode. The Mobo has been recapped and works great otherwise.
I have 8 16 MB OWC 30 pin SIMMS in my SE/30 works great. But the first set I bought were some other brand from a seller on eBay and they did not work.
I also have an SE/30 board that has loose or bad solder at Bank B so only Bank A can be used at this time.
Do you have any other SIMMS to test in Bank B while Bank A has 4 16 MB SIMMS?
Both of my SE/30s have that Semisimac pattern when they don't like the current memory configuration, and/or when going thru the memory test.
Hey Techknight, is this a mux issue? Board works perfectly after i get past the nasty horrizontal lines. It will chime about 10 seconds after i turn it on and get normal screen. Not sure if this is the same as OP or not. I tried different rom, ram, all banks work. Sorry to hijack. Just trying to see if it is something i can fix
