Yup. Strip it ALL down to a PC only with video card, one EDS and one =
MEC. Get that flying, add a second EDS.. pull the 2nd EDS, try another, =
etc... do the same with MEC's and cables.=20

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.
I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the same in =
the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.
Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

I don't s'pose it could hurt if they're tarnished. My =

Aaron,
Hyperthreading is off. I'll double check though. I'd love to =

on those scsi cables.
What do you think about Deoxit in the female scsi jacks?

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these =
issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did =
also.

Tom,
Stupid question, but did you ever start up without any =
c16's? If so did=20
you see the same issue?
