It seems that the controller couldn't allocate enough irqs...or something...so I did manage to get it working for a few days when i ...

edit: By the way, I tried running memtest86+ and it said my memory control chipset is vt82c585. I found its data sheet here http://www.digchip.com/datasheets/parts ... 82C585.php , but I can't understand a thing. Hope this helps...

{2x16mb},{2x16mb}-works
{} ,{2x16mb}-i don't know if it works since the computer didn't start up, but this ...

on the chips themselves there's:
USA 9803
S4004SE1DJ

and on the board on which the chips lie:
HJ M1 94V-0
