Subject: SUMMARY IPX MEMORY

Summarry addednum:
I did not include the original question with my first summary, I have
been corrected, and here you go:

I would like to upgrade the ram in my IPX (currently 16mg) I tried
using two 16mg simms, which passed test-memory, but I received Data
Access Exeception on boot. Does any know the correct type /
configuration of memory to use in an IPX.

As always,
This list comes through with shining colors. Within a couple of hours
I received the following responses = all more than acceptable. If all
mailing list were this good, I'd never have to read another a tech
manual :-)

You need to use 16MB, 72-pin, TRUE parity RAM (36-bit) and it should
be fine.
