- PROBLEM: A customer, running NetWare 386 v3.1 on an AST 486/25 EISA
- machine, was receiving GPI and NMI parity errors. They
- couldn't mount volume SYS and mirroring was constantly going
- out of sync. The problem was the AST memory board.
-
- They actually had an OEM version of the memory board made by
- another company. The simms on the board say "memory made
- for AST". There's nothing wrong with the board. They are
- just boards that are incompatible in AST machines.
-
- SOLUTION: They put in a true AST board and it worked fine.
