- Hi netters,
- About six months ago, I bought a used Chicony model CH-386S-16D
- motherboard with 4 Mbytes of DRAM. It has space for 4 more Mbytes
- of SIMMs, but when I installed the SIMMs nothing happened (I still
- had only 4 Mbytes). When I take the DRAMs out the board senses the
- SIMMs, so I know the SIMMs are good. Moving jumpers 21-26 does
- nothing (jumpers 21-26 set up the SIMMS to be either bank 0-1 or
- bank 2-3 depending on the existense of DRAMs, the DRAMs _must_ be
- banks 0-1).
- I have looked all through the Chicony manual and can not find a
- mailing address or phone number anywhere. Could some kind netter
- help me (if they have a similar board)? Or at least send me
- information on how to contact the company? I strongly suspect I need
- a BIOS upgrade.
-
- Thanks,
