>>I'm still just relieved how much the motherboard exchange cleaned up!
It must have been another shipping effect, because if I leave my caches on I
see no differences. The SCSI board errors came so in frequently and seemed to
stop altogether when I swapped out the oldest HD that I thought all that stuff
was O.K.
Its amazing to me how much stuff was loosened and shifted around even when it
was all double boxed. Even on the main unit the right sided of the floppy and
drive adapted into the 5.25 bay were pushed in far enough to have about 1/8
inch daylight shinning into the box along that edge. I had to re-adjust their
position on the PS bridge when I put the MegAchip back in. I also got a fair
amount of movement on all the socketted chips when I pushe on them and Agnes
came out without a scuffle. It must have undergone a nice vertical drop to the
floor/ground at some point in transit.
Anyway, I ran all the diags on it and it checks out OK – but then so did the
old board before I sent it so, who know. Seems to be running OK and that I
guess is the best measure.
