Hi Folks:
I'm new to this mailing list, and new to Dec Alpha hardware. I
looked for this problem on the archive, and did not find it. So I feel
okay bothering you about it. I have an AXPPCI33 Motherboard with a 133MHz
Alpha Chip. It has 32 MB of Compaq Parity Ram, no cache, an ISA SVGA video
card, a floppy, and currently no hard drive. The BIOS splash screen looks
like this.
Bios emulation v1.07

My bios chip is a 27c512-2 (No flash) with a Dec 89 label. ( I have a
EPROM burner ).
Here's the problem, after the BIOS splash, I get a blue screen
with a flashing white '_' curser, and nothing more. I fear I have the
wrong ram, but the docs say any parity ram will do. Am I wrong
here? Anybody else see this problem, let alone have a solution?
