Is there a secret to getting these working? I just picked up 4x16MB 30-pin SIMMs. They are 9 chip 60ns parity modules and they don't seem to work on any of my 486 boards. My Tyan S1437 and NICE EISA boards officially support them and use the SiS 411/406 chipset. I get no POST at all with them. Both boards have 256kb cache on them if it matters. I also tried a Chaintech 4SLB (SiS 471 based) board that I have here and get no POST on it either.
The only thing that seems to recognize them properly is my Soundblaster AWE32! They test out OK with Creative's memory tester function in DIAGNOSE.
Is there any other thing I can try to get them working on my EISA boards, or should I just return them?
