We have 2 servers with this chip, one running NT 3.51 Wkstn, and one
Running NT 4.0 Server - VERY successfully!!! I would judge the speed more
equal to a P75, an upgrade on my SQL server from the 5x86 to a P133 showed
a 200% increase in speed.
I have built several machines like that and have had NO problems. Even
using older MBs and a BIOSed HD controller, and the Kingston 5x86 - 133
TurboChip.
Does the Motherboard support large drives or are you using the boot program
that comes with the drive? I would be suspect of the program.
Try changing out all the ram... Try booting without a network card...
If you installed from CD, then removed the drive, try re-installing it (I
had problems with this one).
When does the error occur? While installing, booting, running?
Millions of sugestions but I can't type...
