ok so i have 3 IIsi's, they all have nic's in them.
They are all running 7.5
So the first 2 have an ok amount of ram one has 9mb then other has 17mb + 73gig 10k hard drives.
cool, and they both boot up, grab an IP … No problem… browse the web…
The third iisi, oh man this one. Its the one that has 4 megs onboard. and 4 meg's in bank b, 8 total!
This one also has a 40meg quantum drive… way too small by hey, I was lazy and it works...
anyways… this same one. with a nubus adaptor… Nubus nic card. would boot up … Grab and IP!!!!
and then once i load up netscape before it loads a webpage, it gives a network error.

go back into TCP/IP and the LEASED IP is now GONE!!!!
What the heck is going on here, I thought. So first thing, I started to question the 4 megs of ram I soldered on, maybe causing flaky issues?
checked that all out… and sure enough all the ram was soldered on flawlessly.
next i thought maybe this NIB NIC is bum…. so i swap that out with the same one.
tried it.. same thing….
so i thought maybe the Nubus adaptor could be Bum!
so i swapped it out with the another one.
tired it same thing!
re-capped both Nubus adaptors…..
nope, same.
I had to set this thing aside it was really getting to me… Hap emailed me, and I had to unload on him, letting him know of my troubles.
He said you will figure it out DOOD! hang in there… and OH by the way , I GOT A NEW POWERBOOK G4 Dual CPU 1.5ghz prototype!!! INSANE EPIC!!!
lol and sure enough it is really awesome…(I saw pictures) I'm sure he will make a post on this tomorrow.
started to work on a se superdrive, got that one all set…
stalled for a bit.. cleaning my desk,,, the whole time thinking about this WIERD IIsi and what its deal is…
so anyways, some how i ended up with it back on my desk and in the memory control panel.
and for giggles i tried to enable virtual memory.
it said no… your HD drivers are out of date, please run HDSC.
So i don't know why, but i ended up ripping out that hd and installing a 73 gigger like the rest.
booted it up, -- tons faster by the way… went to check memory, and enabled 20 megs of virtual ram.
rebooted…
i didn't even check to see if i had obtained an IP, this time, just clicked on netscape and ………
Bang! main.system7today.com pops up!!!
it works… i thought to my self…
wow 8 megs of ram must have been Jusssssssssst enough…. to open netscape. but not enough to render a webpage, and stops with the THAT error.
Virtual memory to the rescue!
I mean in the netscape message it even said something about resources.
but why would it kill my ip address lease as well??? that part, is what got me me going.
